[quote name='EJames' post='1323113' date='Jul 10 2007, 04:08 PM']i am inclined to think your photo is of a Sister of the Lamb from France, as seen below., who are quite present in the streets and Churches of Rome.

Does anyone else know if there are other communities that, like the Community of the Lamb, are "branches" of the Dominican Order? (I know the Community of St. John had a Dominican founder, but I don't think they considere themselves to be a branch of the family tree. I mean in terms of spirituality... b/c one could argue that apostolic sisters are a "branch" as are lay (single or married) Dominicans.)

sorry should have put this with the pic

while they are truly a Dominican Branch, since <in French, they have 'O.P.' after the Community name., but meeting them in Paris..St Francis is also their Patron as well, they feel they are both of Franciscan and Dominican unity

"Following Jesus poor and crucified and in the footsteps of Saint Dominic and Saint Francis, incessantly praying the Name of Jesus, and seeking out after the lost sheep who have wandered furthest away, they go from door to door begging their daily bread.
Witnesses of God’s mendicant love.
Witnesses of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ"
...if you are called to an order, to be a begger for The Lord ,and a hitchhiker for Jesus.preaching in the streets and universities,.with no place to lay your head, as The Master...this is for you

When I studied in Rome, we always called them "the little sisters of the lamb". Sorry, I wasn't very explicit! Here's another:

The one in the far right of the novitiate picture has since professed Solemn Vows and gotten her black veil.

edit: Sorry, clicked "quote" on wrong post.
