Ho Hum, is anyone with me that this is just a blah day in the Church's year?
We've celebrated the Spirit for 50 days, basking in the glory of Easter and the culmination of the great Feast of Pentecost.
Now what? Ordinary Time? What's that?!?!
Nothing particular to celebrate, nothing great to anticipate, just the ho-hum rythum of daily life. 'Nothing to see here, move along!'
I guess we toil away until the Lord comes again.

For men and women struggling with the conundrum of discernment. How do you know if you are called? What is a call? And where is the phone, anyway!?
Who ARE these people?
This is a fiction AND parody blog authored by experienced "discerners", with the goal and mission to draw attention to Vocations through the use of humor mixed in with serious information and situations. Oftentimes mistakes are made in Vocational discernment that lead some people into the predicament of being "perpetual discerners". So, with that intro, welcome to the... uh... strange...home of the Brothers and Sisters of Perpetual Discernment. Please add your comments, your own mistakes, your observations of discernment gone wrong, and email us with ideas for characters!

What? He left???? When's he coming back?
Well...where did He go?
And why is everything green?
Green?
Oh, the vestments and the very nice banners we've borrowed from the Spirit of Vatican II 'Catholic' Faith community until we get our own?
I remember something along these lines from my seminary days (DREADFUL!): the green is a reminder that faith grows in the silence of the heart, in the long slow summer, in the toil of daily labor. We start to hear the call of the Lord in moving through the routine, and slowly the Call blossoms as the spring turns to summer.
Oh. I KNEW they came from somewhere bad. They're really ugly. (Sorry, Father.) When can we get our own stuff for the chapel?
At least we have a wonderful statue of Mary and Jesus.
Oh, and that they taught you in the seminary...how trite is THAT!?
Sister, try not to offend Father's taste, even it if it IS bad. Beggars can't be choosers. If we had the ability to get something better, we would.
Father, you and I can speak later about the chapel decorations...why don't you leave that to me? You have more important things to attend to...such as Sister Caprice's religious formation. And possibly Confession.
Mother,
I was at the Religious Goods store today, after leaving the Dominicans, I had to get something new for the chapel, as those banners are HIDEOUS!
Well, my next question is how much we have in the budget, cause I can spend it all, if I have to! (Either that, or be quick when the Dominicans aren't looking!)
Can I go shopping with Brother Brit? Please? I'd hate to steal from the Dominicans...I really like the Dominicans.
Brother Brit...does your Dominican community have a "Sister" community, too?
