Being received as a Novice today

[@wcwong3868]

May God bless you, dear Sr Lizzie.

[@slm5667]

I've watched your videos constantly since just before you entered the first community. You've helped me discern through changing jobs twice this last year and a half. Maybe it's because we're the same age, but I had to reach out and say thank you for being a contemplative, youthful, and approachable voice for the Christian path(s). Have an amazing day and journey.

[@anglicansisterjourney869]

Thank you so much. Have an amazing journey yourself x

[@lydiaguy4017]

I'm so glad I found this as I watched all your previous videos and them presumed we'd not hear from you again. Your discernment process helped me in mine as I feel called (at 63) to the Single Consecrated Life and am now actively praying my way through this and expect to apply in the next few months. God bless you.

[@1peter2_9]

Congratulations Sister Lizzie!! I am joyful to see you again! I will continue to pray for you!! May GOD continue to bless you.

[@anglicansisterjourney869]

Thank you

[@Keepersville]

How lovely to find a new video from you, Sr Lizzie! I only found it a week after you posted it, but have been holding you in my prayers for over a year now. Wishing you blessings galore on this next stage of your journey. I love your Novice Guardian's advice! Thank you for this and all your videos; in my late 60s and married, I still find inspiration from all you say and are. xx

[@robinhensley6228]

So good to see you. I think you are brave. Also I want to thank you for the prayers as you go site. I love it and use it nearly every day.

[@anglicansisterjourney869]

Thank you. I'm glad you find the Pray as You Go site / app helpful. Some of my Sisters use it every day too!

[@sandraann4868]

So very pleased for you Sister Lizzie! Thank you for this update it really made my day :/). May God continue to bless you and use your talents during this first year of your noviciate ❤️

I was so happy to see your post! I've been wondering how you were getting on. So glad you've found your community and thanks for continuing to share your journey with us. Every blessing in Christ xxxx

[@teachercathy8540]

i am so glad you posted another video. I wondered if we would ever be able to find out how you were doing and how your discernment process was progressing. I have watched all of your other videos and enjoyed watching you grow as you journeyed through your proess of entering into a monastic community. I hope you will share with us more as your travel through your journey in community with your sisters. Thank you for sharing.

I love the Anglican religious Orders. I am a Roman Catholic but attend Anglican Sunday service. I am an Associate in the Sacred Hearts Lay Associates. In Hawaii we had the Transfiguration sisters from Glendare, Ohio. Teaching at st. Andrew's Priory here in Honolulu.

[@sallykinnish7633]

Thank you! God bless you!

[@lfrancis8980]

So glad you are following your calling. Thank you for this video. I've watched your videos as I've thought about going to seminary, they've been very helpful. God bless

[@anglicansisterjourney869]

Thank you and I'm glad they've been of some help

[@clare1971]

I only came across the channel recently. I’m not religious at all, in fact have only been in a church a handful of times, however I love your channel and find it really interesting and informative

[@thenextlilypad]

So happy for you Sr Lizzie! Much love to you from Tymawr x

[@thelordhearsthecryofthepoo1202]

Congratulations, wishing you all the best on your journey with God. I too was interested in religious life, I lived with a Benedictine order of Sisters. Unfortunately due to health problems I had to leave,

[@laurendanadavid6784]

I will keep you in my daily prayers

[@thebirdisblue]

I am so delighted to see a new video from you.

[@mckue54]

So good to see you and hear a little of God's loving kindness to you Will continue to pray for you all that He will continue to lead and guide

[@anglicansisterjourney869]

Thank you

[@anglicansisterjourney869]

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Thank you so much for all your comments. I'm excited to have learnt that several people have felt inspired to explore religious life having watched these videos. To respond to your requests, I would love to make more videos. Firstly I need to get permission because obviously obedience is important in religious life. Secondly, there is the issue that this channel is primarily about exploring Anglican religious life in general while trying to keep the specific communities I've been exploring with anonymous. It's quite tricky to make more videos about my discernment journey while preserving that anonymity. What I 'm doing is a bit pioneering in the world of Anglican religious life so communities will be a bit cautious of KZbin and what I'm trying to do. A Sister making videos about her life as a Sister would need the consent of her community and even if they were positive about the idea, they might ask me to wait until I'm further into discernment and formation myself. We need to be patient and trust that if its God's will, I'll be able to make more videos in the future. While we wait to see if I can make more videos one day, if you've been helped by these videos or if you have further questions or suggestions of what you would find helpful in future videos, please write your thoughts in the comments section. I can then show your comments to those above me. It will help those in Anglican religious life to learn what people are asking (and it might help me in getting permission to make more videos one day). Wherever you are and whatever you feel called to, God bless each of you on your own journeys. Sr Lizzie x

[@lesleysmith9062]

Thank you for sharing enjoy you new community.

[@ernestcastro6238]

Bless you and thank you for this.

[@1minigrem]

I found you quite by chance but I watch and re watch your postings. As a 56 year old grandmother I might not seem to have a lot in common but your quiet confidence and faith is uplifting and helps me in my faith journey. I hoped you would eventually post a progress vid. Congratulations Sister Lizzie, would it be asking too much for a picture of you in your new habit? Love and prayers to you.

[@anglicansisterjourney869]

Hello. I haven't shown me in full habit as I'm deliberately preserving the anonymity of the communities. I've put a thumbnail of me in veil for you though! X

[@smpxix]

A fascinating journey, please keep us posted :)

[@juliedavies7062]

Hello Sister Lissy. You look so happy! I often hopped you would give us an update on your journey. Thank you.

[@arigirl4536]

Sister Lizzie!!! So excited to see and hear your update! You have been sorely missed! Congratulations! Please (begging) continue to update us often/regularly. We would all love to hear about your experiences in religious life as well! (even simply your day to day routine) You are such an inspiration - whether one is discerning to be a sister or not. Love and prayers always. PS You look beautiful - like the angel you are!

[@anglicansisterjourney869]

[@samjaneparker]

Lizzie congratulations on entering the noviciate this afternoon! I’m so excited to see you uploaded again & that you have found God’s place for you at this stage in your journey. You might never read this but I just wanted to say thank you for your videos- I am a 28 year old Anglican in London UK who is discerning religious life at the moment (I will be doing three weeks as an Alongsider with some Sisters in December) and your videos have helped me a lot! I will be praying for you today! Sam x

[@anglicansisterjourney869]

Thank you. That makes me so happy that you're discerning whether you might be called to religious life yourself! I hope you have a great experience as an Alongsider. x

[@samjaneparker]

AnglicanSister Journey Thank you very much! I’m really looking forward to it. I love researching the various UK communities online / in the guidebook and I resonate with a lot of the things you said in your videos! Every blessing as you move forward. x

[@susanhoward5479]

I asked a year ago if you are still there but have not had a reply. Are you still discerning.?

[@ros8986]

Sister Lizzie is still a sister and is very active in her convent.

[@MichaelMalinowski-c8v]

I love this video of you

[@CrypticChills509]

I have a few questions about becoming a nun and having a disability. 1) can a non catholic become a nun? 2) can a person with a disability become a bride of Christ?

[@christinebutler7630]

To the best of my knowledge, Roman Catholics, Orthodox and Maronite Catholics, and Anglicans (Episcopalians) have orders of nuns and sisters. You do have to be a member of whichever church the order is a part of.

[@chinamen8139]
