Jennifer Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 There are some lovely photographs of two recent ceremonies at OLAM :- The First Profession of Sister Mary Rose and Solemn Profession of Sister Augustine Marie. Both sisters look radiant.!! [url="http://www.olamshrine.com/olam/highlights.htm"]http://www.olamshrine.com/olam/highlights.htm[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cathoholic_anonymous Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Lauren, you are one of the most courageous people I've ever met online. Prayers for you. I don't want to be intrusive, but...how is your discernment going now? (You don't have to answer if you don't want to.) If I were in America, I wouldn't know where to start looking with all the communities you have over there. That beautiful Carmel at Terre Haute? The Carmelite Sisters of the Divine Heart of Jesus? The Sisters of the Resurrection? The Servants of the Lord and the Virgin of Matara? I would be leaping all over the map like an overexcited frog...

My discernment is going just fine. I have found a couple of communities with whom I might fit (nameless for a while longer:)). The door is open at both, and both are encouraging me to take as much time as I need to make a decision. I am guessing it will be a good six months before a decision is made/I enter somewhere else, and both the communities and I are in agreement that that is the best way to go for me at this point. There are indeed a lot of awesome communities in America, praise God. We have been really blessed, especially in the last decade. Thankfully I've been discerning for a [i]long time[/i], so I have narrowed it down pretty well. God bless! Lauren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever the Lord gave you at OLAM you will bring to whatever community you eventually join. I was so sure I'd be in a cloistered community and I find that's not where He wants me. You'll know, I'm glad you're taking time. love and prayers, Piamaria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
