Vocation

Pax et Bonum!

 

Thank you for visiting our website.  (I’m sorry it hasn’t been updated much lately.  We are in the process of redoing it.)

So, perhaps you have been wondering whether God is calling you to be a Sister.  It is a wonderful vocation.  

Yes, it can be frightening when you think of what you have to give up, but you gain so much more.  If it is what the Good Lord is calling you to, then it is what will truly make you happy.  God will not be out done in generosity.  I hope that you will be generous with Him and allow Him to fulfill what your heart really desires.  Love!

Please, take the time to look through the site.  We have some good resources for you and links to more.  If you have any questions, or would like to speak to me, just visit our Contact Us page.

May God bless and guide you.

Our hearts are made to love and they cannot live without love.

Let us place our heart on the altar of sacrifice with all its thoughts, desires, longings and love.  

Let us place it in His most loving heart and ask Him to purify it and fill it with His love.

Spouse of Christ, do not refuse your Bridegroom anything.

Give yourself to Him whole and entire.

Reflections

We have found some old vocation bulletins that our sisters used to send out, back in the 1970s. There are some beautiful thoughts and reflections from sisters, many of whom have since passed away. We’ll be retyping them as time allows and posting them here.
