DeoOptimoMaximo Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Hi Phamily, Just checkin' it, here! As some of you may remember, I left the Pontifical College Josephinum seminary (studying for the Glenmary Home Missioners of America) in November 2007 and then transferred to Ave Maria University & lived with its Pre-Theologate program... Participated in a retreat with the CFR's here at Ave last weekend, nice! This summer, I have been working/studying & writing my thesis on home missionary work here on campus and now am heading for a camping trip with my folks... Gonna check out the southern Appalachians in northern Georgia, then hopefully off on pilgrimage to northern Alabama and the EWTN studios and the Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament...( depending on my mom's health... she has non-hodgkin's lymphoma) Been taking a vocation detour lately, but still am considering Franciscan life, so hopefully will get to talk with the MFVA's and the Knights of the Holy Eucharist... Please keep me in your prayers, you are in mine!!!!! Remember the Lord certainly works in mysterious ways; there are no such things as coincidences, only "God-incidences"! "Only when we look up, do we see how small our daily crosses really are!" May the Lord bless you and keep you in your discernment I love my German shepherd-B16!

Beatus[/quote] I think there may be some crossed wires here. DeOptimusMaximus (DOM), is a guy, and visited Hanceville to talk to the (male) Franciscan Missionaries of the Eternal Word. Chesteron is a girl, and will be entering the Poor Clares of Perpetual Adoration* as a postulant. No? *yay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
