Countdown…
The date is set and I’m counting down! At the end of January (January 28th, the feast of St. Thomas Aquinas, to be exact), I will be entering the monastery for a month-long aspirancy period, after which time I will return home for continued discernment regarding whether God is calling me to be a Dominican nun.
In the meantime, I get to enjoy time with my family through the holidays and into January. What a blessed time of transition!
