Sisters of Mary video

Hey all! My former JPII classmate Alton was involved in a short film festival recently- check out the video he and his team made (team Caritas) on the Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist: http://www.pahnation.com/theater.php
(click on team caritas on the list below the screen)

You can even see our Sr. Mountain a few times :)

Let the Heavens rejoice!




Sr. Heavens and precious Jake were married on Friday! Praise the Lord for a beautiful wedding and great celebration. The heavens opened and closed throughout the evening as well, which just seemed appropriate.

Lauren walked down the aisle to the praise and worship song "Agnus Dei"- which was just so right. It was awesome to sing that "Alleluia" while she appeared from behind the limo man with her dad! (glass walls in the church = big, tall limo man concealing Lauren until the right moment) There were lots of wet eyes in that church.

Jake's dad shared a couple great stories. He was visiting CUA once and went out to Ellis Island with Jake and his friends. The food came and he dropped his napkin; when he had picked it up, he looked up to find a group of young men making the sign of the cross to pray before the meal. He said he was very proud that his son had chosen such friends.

Vocation Eplosion

Christine (see sidebar- Sr. Storm!) has been counting up her [and many of our mutual] friends in religious life/seminary. I think she's up to 24 now.

Well, wretches, we added another one today! Sr. Iguana is entering the Servants this summer. God bless you, Angela and may He draw you closer to His heart and reveal more and more how He has created you for love. Thank you for your yes- follow it wherever He leads!

So where exactly is this "vocations crisis" I keep hearing about???
