I’m currently doing an aspirancy – a prolonged stay – with a cloistered Dominican community in Jersey. I’ve been here since May 9th, and I love it. I plan to apply + enter. My dad will be very, very angry. While a devout Catholic, he doesn’t understand that I want to offer myself in a holocaust of love for the world, to love God in the way He called his disciples to love and follow Him.

I bought a plane ticket home today. I’m heading home the 9th (wow, a month after I came, what a coincidence – just noticed…) to tell him and my brothers face-to-face.

Please pray that he will be responsive to the grace. God is calling, and I am not one to make the Lord of my Soul wait. 😃
 
Hail Mary,
full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou
among women,
and blessed is the
Fruit of thy womb,
Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
 
Lord, please have Safia’s dad see that You are calling him to help the world by becoming a Dominican. Help him to be supportive and accepting. Hail Mary…
 
Father, please fill Safia with your Holy Spirit so that Safia may have wisdom and know whow to tell the family about this monumental decision. Touch the heart of Safia’s father that he may accept and gladly support the choice of Safia.

Safia, your story sounds so much like that of St. Faustina! Her family stopped her from entering the convent for a long time, but eventually, God’s Will took over. I think you are doing a wonderful thing. It is such a grace that you know exactly what you need to do.

Saint Faustina,
You told us that your mission
would continue after your death
and that you would not forget us.

Our Lord also granted you a great privilege
telling you to "distribute graces as you will,
to whom you will, and when you will”.

Relying on this, we ask your
intercession for the graces we need,
especially for our particular intentions.

Help us, above all, to trust in Jesus
as you did and thus glorify His mercy
every moment of our lives.

Amen.

Mother Mary, please make your intentions in this matter come true. Help Safia’s father to accept his daughter’s holy vocation. Bring our Lord’s peace and blessings to this father/daughter trial. Amen.

Memorare (Prayer to Our Lady)
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen
