Investiture of Sister Maria Antonia of the Holy Wounds of Jesus

Last year on October 18, Sr. Maria Antonia of the Holy Wounds of Jesus received the habit of St. Clare. It is a path she believes Jesus chose for her, and it was the answer to her prayer. Mother Mary Angela, abbess of the Poor Clare Monastery in Roswell, chose her name, which pleased Brianna because she had a lifelong devotion to St. Anthony of Padua.
“We’re very happy she’s so joyful,” Donna, her mother, said. “In every picture, she has the biggest beaming smile on her face.”

    I've been a Catholic for 57 years and this is the first glimpse into the ceremony of how a woman becomes a nun - thank you for sharing Catholic Vote, and God bless you Sister Maria Antonia and family. Thank you for serving God and humanity. Your smile made my day.

    What a big beautiful smile she has, how proud her parents, family and friends must be even if they will only see her infrequently and only through the glass panel. God bless you, Sister, keep smiling for the Lord.

It's a Beautiful Life indeed. The place I was at, was St Joseph's Monastery in Aptos, CA. The Sister's were P. C. C. as well. More updated Monastery. Now the Sisters joined their 'Sister' community in Los Altos, CA. I Truly miss them. ⚘️💕✝️

As a momma to grown children, my heart hurts a little for her parents, but seeing her beaming smile, it is undeniable she is where God has called her to be.

For all families cursed from the Luciferin cult of Freemasonry they have caused their own children and grandchildren. 🕯️This is imperative 🕯️ 👑✝️🕊️

    I'm sorry: I'm Catholic to my core, but I have to question the value of nuns (or monks) living in sequestered isolation like this. The world is desperately short of Catholic front-line troops to help address its massive problems, and it just seems an unjustifiable waste for any members of dwindling religious orders to effectively hide away. I know they pray and stuff, but faith and good works, you know?
