Title: Traditional Third Orders
Post by: MaterMisericordiae on January 22, 2014, 10:02:10 PM

So, I have had a strong desire to enter religious life since my conversion in 2010 but, as the years go on I am thinking that perhaps a third order would be best for me. However since the crisis in the Church, most religious orders have fallen out of tadition and consequently, so have their respective third orders.

My question is, how do I go about entering one of the few traditional third orders left? Or perhaps, is it possible to enter the third order of a religious order that is no longer traditional and yet do so traditionally, if that makes sense?

I am not sure which one I would actually end up discerning, but I love the dominicans and the carmelites especially. :incense:

Is there a third order community near where you live?

I would not.   They are with Menzingen, at least by their silence.
