Dominican Contemplative Nuns: Daily Life
http://opheartprints.blogspot.com/p/daily-life.html
The whole life of the nuns is harmoniously ordered to preserving the continual remembrance of God (Const. 74 IV). While we live an enclosed life, this separation paradoxically opens our heart wider in love and concern for God's people. We share the fruits of our contemplation through letters and parlor visits, and also through our artistic talents whether it be poetry, painting, photography, or doll-making. If you wish to know more about the Dominican monastic life, contact our Vocation Directress at:.

http://pewlady.blogspot.com/2015/06/filed-under-what-feasts-we-make-of.html
The Lady in the Pew. A Roman Catholic lady who loves being a Roman Catholic lady. Friday, June 05, 2015. Filed under "what feasts we make of crumbs:" Stewart, the Ashers, and a bleeping cake.

Fine. That's what the family bakery does…make cakes. Okay, that sucks. But be o' good cheer! Baker, and ...

Monday, December 8, 2014. By The Light Of The Moon. Today we celebrate the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary. What does that mean? Why is this important? Mary, who was to be called by God to be Jesus’ mother, was given a “singular grace and privilege of almighty God and by virtue of the merits of Jesus Christ…” ( Pius IX, Ineffabilis Deus. To be free and immune from the stain of original sin. How do we know this? Does this mean we are saying Mary didn’t need Jesus as her savior? Reflection...

http://opheartprints.blogspot.com/p/formation-process.html

This time is planned so that before she quits her job or gives up her apartment and car, she can see from experience if the enclosed contemplative life will be compatible with her gifts. After receiving the Habit the Sister spends two years preparing to make her religious vows. The time is s...
