discernment

"All your affections are being reordered." I had no idea what Sister Margaret meant as she tried to give me encouragement in my early days of becoming a nun. I'd made the leap of faith to pursue religious life but was not at all ready for how I would begin to feel and "be" differently with the world around me.

The Motherhouse Road Trips are a great adventure for Sister Julie and me! We meet lots of new people and hear their stories about ministry, vocation, discernment, and even alpacas. The trips are not only physical journeys but also incredible spiritual journeys. 

At prayer the other day, a number of folks had asked for prayer as they were in transition and deciding on important next steps in their life. We wanted to post a few resources (including the famed Discernment Chart) to help out when you are discerning and deciding on the next steps in life.
