I confess to no longer remembering what the previous forum navigation was like, it has been many bits sent since, but I visit other boards and there are better interfaces to be had. We need some specific way to make suggestions, a way that gives soem clue that the suggestion has at least been read. Sort of like a "Project Log" on open source sites. This isn't really set up in the New Site thread where posts seem to disappear in the big bit bucket in the great beyond.<dl><dt>Regards,</dt><dd>Old Sigma</dd></dl> PS for CE Technical Support: Thank you for adding the navigation options (1 2 Next, etc) for a long thread at the top of the thread. bhickey on "Convents" http://forums.catholicexchange.com/topic/528#post-9204 Sun, 26 Nov 2006 13:29:50 +0000 bhickey 9204@http://forums.catholicexchange.com/ As a dear departed priest once said, only partially in jest, "All change is bad, even if it's for the better." wljewell on "Convents" http://forums.catholicexchange.com/topic/528#post-9203 Sun, 26 Nov 2006 11:56:56 +0000 wljewell 9203@http://forums.catholicexchange.com/ I just prefer the good 'old.' days when '[b]' yielded BOLD instead of 'strong' yielding . . . bold.

I read the proper tags with the edit feature. CE Angel, please provide direct links from the websites to the words "Dominican" and "FOCUS" to replace the website address. I will study and practice so that I won't need to pester you in the future. God bless.

I certainly encourage you to speak your bishop about this. Most Catholic nuns have a long waiting list of requests. It helps to initiate the process as soon as possible. The Dominican nuns in Nashville Tennessee are a growing community. The nuns wear a traditional habit and they are very orthodox Catholics. Recently a young lady from our diocese made her perpetual vows with the <a href="http://www.nashvilledominican.org/">Dominican</a> nuns in Nashville.There is also a great demand for lay Catholic missionaries for college campuses notably Fellowship of Catholic University Students – FOCUS. This organization has a long waiting list to fill the numerous requests for young lay Catholics who receive missionary training in the <a href="http://www.focusonline.org/">FOCUS</a> program. --Vi p.s. I would appreciate if a moderator could complete a direct link to the above two websites. I will continue to study the HTML tags offered below my Comments Box. wljewell on "Convents" http://forums.catholicexchange.com/topic/528#post-9201 Fri, 24 Nov 2006 08:31:57 +0000 wljewell 9201@http://forums.catholicexchange.com/ Saint and Mother Teresa of Calcutta's Missionaries of Charity are awesome anywhere. If you approach your bishop, have services that they could provide in mind. They specialize in the marginalized, the forgotten, the homeless, the penniless, the dying - true missionaries out of the love of Christ and the heart of the Church.

Cardinal George gave them a free building. Is that all they need? I wouldn't mind talking to my bishop about it because I think a group like that would be awesome here. I just want to know if the idea makes any sense or not.
