I thought once to be a nun when I was 10 years old but decided against it, yea at 10! and knew I would be ridiculed by my family for the thought so I never mentioned it to anyone. After a long life of sin, one day I was watching Mother Angelica and she urged us all to go to confession saying. "It was kind of an insult to God to think we had a sin greater than his mercy". So I went to confession and slowly, am making my way into the Grace of God, who loves me so much as Mother Angelica taught.
It's deeply moving and tender. CLOISTERED: GOD'S WOMEN OF STEEL helps show that a church is not a building, it is the people and their faith. The lives of these Nuns and their stories will inspire the hesitating and affirm the commitment. I can't wait to watch the complete movie.
Very nice, inspiring. The joy and peace of each of the sisters was radiating out to us in the world. Thank you for your prayers for all of us out here.
Look into the 3rd orders. That may help you. I am going to join the 3rd order Carmelites. I am old now, 51 but if you are young enough go and find what it is the Lord is calling you to. You will never regret. And remember, it takes like 6 years before you make a final vow so you will have lots of time for discernment. May the Grace of the Lord fill your soul.
You visit! I had a lot of questions as well and spent a week in a Dominican cloister. It is so beautiful. I really encourage you to get in contact with a particular cloister that is attractive to you. I'll be praying for you.
So many Saints were in the same situation as you. God will help your family, trust him in that! Go to your vocation. Perhaps your own sister will follow you. And remember, the Sisters who train you will help you with your hard questions. I wish I had gone when I was called many years ago. Now I am still single and never married but my health and debt keep me from the consecrated life. There are 3rd orders. I am looking into becoming a 3 order Carmelite. There are 3 order Franciscan's too.
I am always inspired by the dedication of these Holy and Devout Nuns, they have answered the call to Serve Our Lord Jesus, and in this, they have excelled. God Bless them All in Great Abundance.
@heaven767 I know how you feel, I myself having a hard time to a decision! I have a big responsibilities as a daughter and a sister... My mother is sick asthma and kidney she still under observation till now.... My father too diabetic and highblood they were old already! I have 2 brother both had a family and 2 sister still single... I'm still supporting my youngest sister to school and my parent medicine! In my heart I want to answer God's call but for now it's hard.. Because my family lend on
Such happiness in all those faces. I am not very religious but these women have certainlyinpsired me to look beyond what the world throws at me.
All the nuns are so beautiful ....they have the inner and the outer beauty.
Their faces simply radiate happiness... not of this world. God bless them and their good work.

I hope and pray that more girls choose to serve the lord in the cloister.
