Sr. Debbie OSC:nun2:Congratulations and may our good Lord be with you on your first year as a noviate.In addition to the ones already listed, Vocations Placement has not only tools to help in the early stages of vocation discernment.
They also have a video which hi lights 9 different religious orders and provides a study guide which may be helpful to some who are looking at religious life:
I myself haven’t seen the video though I have myself used the services of this organization when I began the process of looking at various communities.
(among others) Hope this helps someone here…

"I wanted to send you a copy of this informative and new DVD entitled, “Jesus Calls Women.” Jesus Calls Women features over 9 different religious orders with 12 interviews and is approximately 30 minutes. To top it off, there is a study guide included! It is available in English and Spanish on the same DVD. The purpose of the video is to reach out to all of the women who may be seeking religious life, have thought about it, those who just haven’t been informed enough about it yet, or maybe just have a false impression of religious life.
Order it now at: vocationsplacement.org/books.asp?bookpage=true*
And we will include the book, “The Promised Land Of Vocation” “Knowing if you are called to marriage, religious life, or the priesthood.”
If you want to order by mail simply send check or money order in the amount of $27.70 to:

In January-February 2006, in connection with a project of The Learning Channel, five lay women lived with us for 40 days. A camera crew followed them and us as we incorporated them into our daily work and prayer, and explained to the best of our ability the meaning of our life.
For various reasons the 4 programs made of this experience have never aired. However, we have DVD copies of the programs and are able to make them available to our friends. We do ask that you reimburse us for the cost of the DVD’s and shipping/handling.
mississippiabbey.org/DVDsAs soon as we can, we will make available on this page materials that can be used in conjunction with the DVD’s, for a group retreat or a discussion group. Our hope and prayer is that these programs may be of help to many people on their journey to God.
