the lords sheep Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I am so glad to hear that they are returning to Rome. May the Lord bless them for their courage and their conviction! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sr Mary Catharine OP Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Yes, I 've known about this for a few weeks. They need our prayers because I'm sure it's a very painful situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HollyDolly Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 : Wow,that's great! I'm sure it was a hard decision for them to make and wish them well.I'm at work and can't check this out,it won't let me. Will have to go to the library to do so. However,I thought that they had already gone back to Rome,but i guess I was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThyHolyLove Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Wow, this is truly amazing.... I admit there were sometimes where I looked at their site and thought, if only they were in communion with Rome. I know this transition is hard for everyone involved, but I think loads of grace are headed for these sisters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A seminarian friend of mine from WA knew them and said that they were the nicest sisters and always loved going to visit them, even though they were not in union with Rome. Evidentially the rumblings of reconciliation had begun a while back. I cannot imagine leaving the community you were professed in and going to start a new one like they are --- that must be SO VERY difficult and heart breaking. They are definitely in my prayers. it is very courageous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that they are also experiencing great joy and peace because they are coming into the truth and coming home. The Lord offers such good consolation to his faithful!

Moneybags Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Good to read. I don't mind the SSPX but I am not a fan of the CMRI because of their sede-vecantist stance. What is the name of their new order? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
