Is God calling you? Are you going to answer His call to Holiness?
This page is dedicated to all of those men and women in our group or that we know of and are praying for that we want to show case and let people know of the fruits that the group has been praying for, especially during First Fridays at Holy Cross Church at downtown Columbus.
It is important that we pray for our fellow brothers and sisters who are discerning and need the extra push to receive God's instructions and answer that call.
May God, the source of all goodness and gentleness, bless you and your willingness to listen to His words of wisdom and answer His call to be His faithful servant.

Third Order Order of Discalced Carmelites
Congratulations to our very own Mary Hodgson for being installed as a member of the Third Order Community of Carmelites in Columbus, OH.
The event was held at Worthington, St. Michael the Archangel.
The mass started at promptly 6:30 PM and the music was in Latin while the mass itself was in English.
After the mass, the newly accepted members were greeted by well wishers and the community present at the event. There were 5 of us who attended the event last July 16, the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel.

Franciscan Friars of the Renewal
I finally located the photo taken of our dear member Bryan O'Donnell when he was in town. We had a blast meeting up with him at Rusty Bucket at Polaris Parkway one spring day.
The chat with him lasted for hours and a few of the members came up to the busy part of town to see him and catch up with him. He shared with us his wondrous experience since he entered the Order and the Seminary. He is hoping to be a priest, but we shall see what the Franciscan Spirit deems him to be.
He is indeed "high with the Holy Trinity and with St. Francis".
News flash update on Bro. Bryan O'Donnell as of Monday, August 13, 2012 - he has taken his Noviate vows and is now one of our Religious vocations. Praise to Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
His new address, if you decide to write him is:
Motherhouse North America and Novitiate
Franciscan Friars of the Immaculate
Marian Friary "Our Lady of Guadalupe"
199 Colonel Brown Road, Griswold, CT 06351

Franciscan Sisters of the Renewal
Kurai Muchache is currently in the East Coast as a candidate to be a Franciscan Sisters of the Immaculate, a sister religious order that Friar Felix joined. She entered last August 2014. So far, Kurai is enjoying her life with the sisters. Let us continue to pray that she perseveres to God's calling and that the Virgin Mary may guide her and be her role model with the contemplative religious life she is embracing. (she is in the photo above in the red vest, seated at the right end)
