Was there anything else they could tell you about the habit? Was there anything on it? Like a belt, a medallion, or a cross worn from the neck? Could they tell if you were cloistered or active?They said that it was all-white Habit.
Reason I ask is that I have a Cloister Outreach collaborator in the Philippines, and I’ve been asking him about white habits there.
Blessings,

I want to become a Priest or a deacon , however i want to have a family to. Maybe a priest in one of the Eastern Catholic Churches.

It doesn’t really work that way…you can not get ritually transferred to an Eastern church for that specific reason. Plus, if you are from the US, generally the Byzantine Catholic Church does not ordain married men.
Keep discerning and God will show you his plan.

Deacons can get married too, can’t they? I want to be a nun, but I also want to raise a family. Personally I think God wants me to raise a family.

That is also true for priests in the Eastern Catholic Churches: a married man can become a priest, but a priest cannot marry nor remarry.

Ooohhh, okay. I guess I probably should’ve known that; I know a married deacon! :doh2:To be specific, a married man can become a deacon, but a deacon cannot marry, even if he becomes a widower.

they cannot specifically distinguish what I’m wearing…
Again, one of my former classmate, dreamt about me…
it was last march 21, 2009, recent…
i was having a chat with my former classmate, it was a year since i met him, because he transferred to other school, specifically those ruled by Salesian Priests…
when, he was going to sign out, I just said to him “God Bless”, and he replied to me, "Same to you,Sr…then my whole name, FMA…(Daughters of Mary Help of Christians),Salesian Sisters in short. …I told him, where he got those ideas, I do not mention anything about it to him, and i was surprised…he just said that he dreamt of me as a salesian sister. It was the time, when he was really obsess with his project in Christian Living about confession, in his dream, he saw the repentant talking to a salesian sister, and it was me…
I am surprised of what he said, I cannot understand why, he dreamt of me as a religious sister, because first of all he don’t know about it…

That’s pretty amazing! I love things like this. Even if the meaning isn’t clear, (I find this one to be but many other dreams aren’t) it is really fun trying to find a meaningthey cannot specifically distinguish what I’m wearing…

If I dream of an all black habit nun/sister. Does that mean to find a congregation or an order where they wore black habit? Just wondering…

I was suggested once by a Passionist Priest last month to look into the Passionist Nuns in Whitesville, KY. When I did, I discovered they were beautiful, but God called me back to Carmel. Here’s the Passionist Nuns’ website:

Do they wore black habit the benedictines? I don’t know much about them but I know there is a benedictine monastery quite far from our area. At least now I can filter my search.Perhaps the Benedictines? Or the Visitation Sisters? Or maybe Passionist Nuns?

Here is my dream… Please tell me what you think. It’s been years and I can’t seem to forget it. I thought it’s not important, what is important is what is real. But, I’m still curious what if it meant something.
It is like 15-20 minutes dream. It was afternoon as I was waiting for my next class. Well, here it is… I’m standing in a very dark place, (I thought it was a church) since it was very dark I can’t figure how large or small it was. I saw in my right at the very front row a nun/sister dressed all in black habit kneeling on the very left side of the kneeler, I was standing at the back. It’s like I’m watching a scene. Then suddenly, a person descended, it came from where the altar should be as it was very dark I can only see a figure coming, looks like a Pope. He stopped, he’s standing now at the side of the nun/sister. I, though not walking went a little closer. Then I heard a big voice of a man, he spoke “Do not be afraid”. As I’m about to look at the man’s face, I am now that nun kneeling at his side, I noticed it because I’m raising my head to see his face. Unfortunately/fortunately I didn’t see the face because he has no face at all (covered by black around his face). Then I woke up.
I wasn’t thinking about becoming a nun/sister at that time. I was more engulfed with the thought of what am I to do after I graduated in college since I’ve lost interest of many sorts (all vain and material stuff). I’d thought that there must be something out there, just something. I was like in an “awakening” state, and this intervenes my plans. Since then, I’ve lost sense of direction, right now I’m just working for an obligation and when I’m done, I’m gonna try religious life and see. I just have a lot of problems and all is my fault.
It was saint faustina’s diary who changed my life and my views about life, and I’ve never thought that the one I’m so attracted in my childhood would be the one to save me.

I really think this is an important dream. You should look further into it, and discern, if you haven’t already. Sometimes, part of our subconscious longs for something we don’t know about when we are awake, and it’s in our dreams and thoughts that the Lord speaks to us. Perhaps He was telling you something important!Here is my dream… Please tell me what you think. It’s been years and I can’t seem to forget it.

It wouldn’t surprise me, one bit, if the Pope you are speaking of was John Paul II. His message to discerners was “Don’t be afraid.” He was the Pope that canonized St. Faustina, too.
Perhaps you should think about looking into St. Faustina’s order? Their habit is black, as well! And they are not cloistered. They are active/contemplative.

As you know, their main house is in Poland, but they do have a house here in Dorchester, MA.

I’ve thought about their congregation too but when I’d read their apostolate. It seems too hard for me. And aside from that, it’s very far.

Hmmm, their apostolate does seem difficult…Are you in the US? I could do a search, if you would like.I’ve thought about their congregation too but when I’d read their apostolate. It seems too hard for me. And aside from that, it’s very far. I can’t afford it.

No, I’m from the Philippines. I’ve emailed them before, last year. Just asking for help because I don’t know how to discern properly. I don’t even know the word “discern” and many other things regarding religious life. I don’t know who I am going to talk to so my last resort (which took all of my courage) is to just email them.
Then I found this forum, and is such a blessing to be here.
