A quick (incomplete) trip around the ring shows that interesting things are afoot at the circle sisterbloggers!
Not to toot my own horn, but then again why not? I got a call from our Congregation Leader today. Sr. Sheila didn’t want me to have to wait till I got the letter in the mail to know that I’ve been accepted to the Novitiate!!!!!
Natty is becoming a pre-candidate with her groovy sisters!
Steph is failing to learn one of life’s lessons … again!
Sister Christer’s furry friend is turning up in interesting places!
And the Da Vinci Code is the topic of the day at nunblog and compelled by love.
That’ll have to do for now … I’m too excited about my news to do a complete roundup.
Peace, Joy & Sisterblogger Friendship to you all!!

You shall have life in abundance
[Updated 5/13/06, 10pm]
Please welcome TWO new members to our humble little WebRing:
Sr. Hildegard Magdalen Pleva, OSsR, of the Redemptoristine Nuns, hails from Esopus, New York, and shares with us her Monastic Musings. We've been working together to get the ring code added to her blog, and I can attest that she is quite pleasant and has several good reflections on her blog already.
Please also visit our newest member, Abiding on the Fringes. I haven't had a chance to get up to speed with her writings yet, but at first glance, it looks like good stuff!
Welcome!!
In a long-overdue round-up, it's a season of change for many SisterBloggers. And I've also noticed several posts reflecting on the topic of death and dying lately. Could be because I also have a friend who may be slipping away before my eyes.
Sr. Steph tries to get prepared for the passing of a dear friend, and there are other Sisters who may be going home soon as well...
Sister Christer has moved home to San Jose to care for her mother as she faces cancer.
Sr. Anne recently had a rather embarassing cell phone problem at a funeral. I say, if you're going to be disturbed by a cell phone during a funeral viewing, then "Regina Coeli" is about the most apropriate ring tone I can imagine!
Anne is looking for a job that's closer to where she lives, has a friend who could be facing cancer, and reflects on the recent murder conviction of the priest who killed a Sister in Toledo many years ago.
And in other topics...
Sister Mary Alternative has the vow of obedience blues. I'm sure several of you can relate!
Best Catholic Books asks, What's your favorite number?? as she's found herself meditating on the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
Soul_Seeker is off to Hondouras for a couple of weeks, and then posts something in Tagalog. Any translators out there? ;-)
Seeking_Something is trying to adjust to her new job, which for her includes finding a suitable time and place to attend daily mass.
Sister Claire Joy shares a beatiful 2(?)-part reflection on her friend Dan who recently passed away. She also reflects on her experience as a leader for a Cursillo weekend.
And finally, Susan Rose is on a Groovy-Sisters Reserves Weekend where she's meeting with the Province leadership team to discern her readiness to enter novitiate in the fall. Talk about transitions!!

Easter Week Roundup
Easter Blessings and greetings to all in the blogosphere who happen upon this gateway to Sister Blogger Land. This week you can read about many things on our blogs, including the following highlights:
Ann seems to be hooked on going to mass!
Lauren has taken a leap to the private sector and tells us six random things.
Sr Anne, Sr Clare Joy, and Lisa are also playing the six random things meme.
(I just realized Lisa tagged me so I'll work on that later tonight! Others of you were tagged too so you should check!)
Steph has discovered a new Gospel!
Nicole uses her new picture blog to tell us about the Veneration of the Cross.
Sr. Bernadette tells us where she's been.
I relive my childhood game of pawing through my mother's jewelry box to find super hero accessories.
And last but not least … Natty applies her higher education to office supply management.

A Blogging Easter
Whats going on this Easter with ur wonderful Sisterbloggers? well, lets see who is doing what.
Anne, talks about the sirens and the bad weather that she has been having. Which my area is under some warnings at this moment. Anne also talks about a movie called Rwanda which is about true events that went on in Africa with the genocides. Its a very good movie and I do recommend it as a future movie night watch.
Cathy shows us a baptismal blanket that her and some friends have been working on. Great job!! Sister Claire Joy just wanted to sleep in on this wonderful Easter Sunday and evidently had forgotten what day it was or maybe she was just too far asleep....not sure, you might want to see for yourself!! Susan Rose had some wonderful Easter thoughts! Sister Ann shows us some pretty interesting things that her fellow Sisters have done, from baking to decorating, and something that Sister Ann made herself.....pretty interesting if you ask me!!!
That seems to be about everyone. Just a minor note to everyone inlcuding Lauren. I had to delete my blog Religious Life but re-opened it with a small entry. I was kinda asked to Close down all my blogs. I love bloggin but the Sisters felt I was giving too much information. So I started a new blog called Picture Perfect. Pictures are posted instead of words. So I hope you like this one too!!!
God Bless and Have a Wonderful DAY!!!

Mea Culpa
Sorry I didn't get a round-up done for this past week. I meant to, I really did. And Nicole even reminded me it was my week. But life got in the way this week.
And so if it's slow at work tomorrow, I'll see what I can pull together. Otherwise, y'all just have to do a random round-about-the-ring for yourselves. How about posting a comment about the most interesting post from the last week you found on one of the other SisterBloggers' Sites?
Yeah, that's called delegating all right! ;-)

Leavin' On A Jet Plane
Hey all, I am leavin' on a jet plane here in a short while to visit my mom in Arizona and wanted to do a quickie roundup before I head off. I've got lotsa packing and loose ends to tie up before I leave!
Lisa is talkin' bout conversion.
Susan Rose has recently met a bloggy buddy, 8-blocks from her place of work, has quit her job (not just yet) and is reflecting on suffering and how God strengthens us in times of suffering! (Great reflection).
Steph is talking about St. Benedict & celebrating his feast. School seems to be busy though, as usual. Steph's blog is looking awesome as usual.
Sr. Anne Joan, FSP, is back from Missouri and is celebrating the arrival of Sr. Susan here in Chicago. Now there will be four Daughters in Chicago! yippeeee.
Sr. Marriane Lorraine, FSP, is hanging out in Boston talking about the DaVinci code. I reccomend visiting her blog just to see this link. (Who do you believe? Dan Brown or Jesus?)
Sr. Bernadette, FSP, is still hanging out in Rome studying about the Pauline charism, taking in the beautiful sights (and taking lotsa pictures for us all) and celebrating Jubilee.
if you are reading this...Hi Sr. Bernadette. :)
(I just love the Daughters).... ;)
Nicole has not yet posted, but I can tell you that she is still in Alabama with the Sister Servants of the Eternal Word (via phone messages and text messages). Her flight was cancelled twice and......she is coming home with an application and will try to enter by July, God willing! So stop in and congratulate the little one if you have the time! She is really excited that she has found her home!
(I just love it when people take up their cross and follow Him)... ;)
Sr. Mary Alternative is baaaaack! She is a full time teacher and in grad school, so may not post as regularly as she did prior to January.
Natty is pondering organic foods and happy pills.
Lastly, I ask that you pray for me, as I venture off to Arizona. Also, I will be with the Daughters of St. Paul in Boston for a Holy Week discernment retreat. I am nervous, yet excited at the same time. :) Pray for me!
Everyone here is in my prayers as well! PEACE! ~Lauren

round and round we go
It’s my first round up under our group system! As you’ve probably noticed if you’ve been reading lately, Lauren, Natty, Sixtina & I have split up the weekly round up duties. Now it’s my turn to take a trip around the ring to see what’s up this week with our Sister Bloggers.
Well …. I took a giant leap of faith and quit my job today! There’s more to it than that, but you can go read for yourself.
Soul Seeker spent some time with her groovy sisters … who it turns out have been praying for her extra hard!
Sister Christer has a cool small world moment with a good friend looking at joining her community!
Sixtina is counting the days to her visit with the Sister Servants of the Eternal Word.
Lisa is stopping on her Lenten journey to check in and ask some questions.
Sr. Clare Joy has some questions too.
Talented Lauren shares a drawing inspired by the sorrowful mysteries.
And Anne has a new look and is getting her sillies out while she waits to meet with the vocation director!
That's all for now. Have a blessed 2nd week of Lent everyone!
