For anyone discerning a religious vocation, or anyone who just wants to know what it's like to live with nuns and to be discerning and/or entering with a particular community.
This is my experience.

"Beloved" - Tenth Avenue North

This is a beautiful song...it was written as if God is singing it to you and me. A beautiful reminder of how deeply He loves each one of us. This is why I want to be a Sister.
I just want to say that I will not be mentioning the names of either my community or any of my Sisters. This is simply to protect all my Sisters. I do wish I could at least name my community, because that could add so much to what I have to say (at least I think it would). However, it would be irresponsible at this time. So please accept my apology in advance for any vagueness.
Hello! My name is Katie and I am 21 years old. I live in the northeast U.S. and I am currently in the process of entering religious life! Currently I am what is known as a "discerner"...this means I live at the convent, follow the life of a postulant, but my application is not done yet. This is a very interesting position to be in, which I will explain later. But with God, all things are possible, and if it is His will that all works out in this way, then I know it will. I like learning new things, the Middle East and India, working with kids, nursing, anything crafty like scrapbooking and crocheting and collageing, reading, and writing in my journal.
