My buddy just told me about this yesterday. WAY COOL! I’ve been to her shop. She hosted a Theology on Tap thing there in the past I believe (unfortunately whomever organized it had a woman speaking who believes that women can be priests). I hope this shows up in our local news/newspaper.

I’m not sure where you live, but a story about her ran in two different Wisconsin newspapers.

I hadn’t realized that the title “consecrated virgin” would be troubling to some people. But I am pleased to know that the U.S. is gaining more women called to this vocation.

She has my congrats and prayers. I’m very happy for her. Becoming a consecrated virgin is just as wonderful as becoming a nun or a wife.

Its quite the jouney, discerning a vocation. All my best to her.
