Thank you all! Her Clothing was beautiful! My heart leapt to my throat when I first saw her appear at the Communion window. She had on her postulant habit. There was much beautiful singing by the Nuns and lots of prayers from the Monsignor as he blessed her habit and asked what she wanted from the community of Carmel. Her face was so radiant and she was beaming from ear to ear. When she was prostrate, Mother Mistress sprinkled the pink rose petals that Reverend Mother asked us to procure at the last minute the night before. It was so, so beautiful! She had a bouquet of fresh white roses with a white candle and a crown of white flowers atop her veiled head (the chapel was decorated with roses as well). She cried tears of joy when Monsignor announced that “…henceforth you will be known as Sister Miriam Thérèse of the Holy Face.”
After Mass (TLM), we visited with Sister in the speakroom and she was so surprised to see all who had traveled to witness her big event. We’ve had a lovely couple days of visits and are going to say goodbye to her today.
I told her that I had written a prayer intention on the forum and she was grateful and humbled by all who prayed for her.
Thank you all very much!
God bless you,
keeping her in prayer and hoping she will keep us in hers…
