This site, pictures & blogs give people the chance to learn about your lives. I am a mother of 5 who homeschools all of them. Checking in on your site gives me a sense of peace during loud times. Thank you for choosing to obey God's call. My girls enjoy reading about your community & I pass it on to the other moms in our group.

Agh! I just realised that I made a mistake in the link in my last comment! It should be http://cistercianvocation.wordpress.com , without that "s" at the end of "vocation". Imagine not knowing your own site name! <BR/>God bless,<BR/>Sr Eleanor

In the light of this article and with the same kind of thinking in mind, I've just launched a new blog to supplement our main community website. You might like to check it out: http://cistercianvocations.wordpress.com<BR/>We are the only community of Cistercian (Trappist) nuns in Ireland, and I'm the vocations director. <BR/>DianeK - I love your phrase "electronic extern"!<BR/>Blessings to all.<

I like it when religious communities have websites to visit that have blurbs, photos, and videos. It makes it much easier to learn about the community before I spend several hundred on a plane ticket out to a community. But aside from visiting, it opens up your visibility to the world, so that people can understand that you aren't exceedingly different and are still human as so many people seem

I agree with the others -- excellent article! I absolutely <EM>love</EM> being able to read (and see, thanks to photos/videos) about the lives our religious brothers and sisters lead.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for giving us a little window on your world, sisters. :-)

Excellent article and it mirrors my reflections on vocations in the internet age. <BR/><BR/>Communities need to have an "electronic extern". <BR/><BR/>While a community website is good, I feel strongly that a community blog along with that website is very important. It can give those who are exploring religious life a little more to go on. <BR/><BR/>While on the one hand it removes the
