Website with list of religious orders in the US?

Do you know any website that has a list of religious orders in the US particularly for women?

Thanks!

Here is the list of member communities of the Council of Major Superiors of Women Religious:

cmswr.org/member_communities_cmswr.htm

Not all US women’s congregations belong to it, but the ones that do are solid, from what I hear, so it should be a good starting point. I’m especially fond of the Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia, Sisters of Life, and the Franciscan Sisters of Mary Immaculate (I’ve known some Sisters personally from each of those orders) and have a friend who knows the Franciscan Sisters of the Eucharist. If you want more advice feel free to PM me, I’d love to help!

The congregations which belong to the CMSWR are faithful to the Holy Father, wear the habit in public and are growing fast! Search also at the site of the Institute on Religious Life (religiouslife.com/). This site has both active and cloistered orders, and all of them are very good!

Thank you, NoPlaceLikeRome. I am asking for my sister, not for me though.

The Nuns and sisters will kick me out if I ever step inside their convents unless they don’t mind a guy like me wearing a habit.

Thanks both for the great websites.

Haha! Best of luck to your sister!

www.visionguide.com/info is a site that lists and gives information about many different orders for men and women. It also has links to the orders’ websites, if they have them.
