Hi. I have never posted here before and just wanted to ask something really quick. I'm 20 years old and I want to become a nun, but I worry because most of modern nuns seem very liberal. There's even an Italian nun that became like a popstar singer and people think that this is cool, but I find it very sickening. So I want to be a nun in the strictest and more traditional nun order or monastery in the united states, do you guys know some? I can travel, so distance is not a problem. Also, do I need something else to be a nun, or do I just go there? Any help is appreciated.

Trappists are one of the stricter orders. I'm not sure about in the US but up here New Brunswick and Quebec have both a monastery and convent each for that order. I assume you mean an actual nun or are you also considering being a religious sister? Many people don't differentiate and call both nuns.

God bless you for being brave and wanting to devote your entire being to the LORD. I don't know much about Nun orders, but the Poor Clares in my area are good women that dont do ridiculous stuff like you are worried about in your OP. When I was inducted into the Knights one of the Poor Clares was kind enough to drop off miraculous medals for us 1st degree knights.

Check them out, you might like them:

But no matter which monestary you decide to join, may God always love and be with you, sister.

That's wonderful, anon!

>but I worry because most of modern nuns seem very liberal

I've never met a nun before to be honest (recent convert to Catholicism), so I can't speak for that. However, religious sisters in my experience are liberal-leaning and care little for tradition.

>Also, do I need something else to be a nun, or do I just go there? Any help is appreciated

I really don't know, but hopefully someone else here can be of more help (there's not many women on this board). I'm just happy to see a traditional young woman pursue that vocation. God bless you on your journey!

I would try to find information on their 'vocations' section. You usually can just go from there and get in contact with the vocations director to find out more info. God bless you in your journey and thank you for your prayers!

I believe the SSPX will be reconciled soon (so it seems) so you may want to try their convents as well.

Really it down and discern that this is what God wants from you.

FSSP is the most traditional group in full communion they have a Caramelite order.

SSPX is older and might have a few orders but they are sort of in a weird Gray area. with prayers and fasting perhaps one day they will be allowed full communion and the Vatican will be purged of modernist filth.

Stay away from Sedes.

Thank you very much for the information and the encouragement! God bless you too.

Talking about vocation, I admit I don't have things 100% clear in my head. I came here 5 years ago (my family is from Eastern Europe), and I feel increasingly alienated from everything… I just don't look forward at all in living in this consumerist society, just finding a job that I don't care about to buy things until I get old. Reading about how nuns live, about how they take vows and live humble lives of prayer and manual labor, it seems like such a wonderful life, it fills me with excitement. In the middle age many women became nuns, so I feel like religious vocation is not something for only very specific people, I think God can make it work even for someone like me, that is very naive and have many flaws. I know it can be hard to give up so many things, but I feel like I have to do it.

Try to explore the different orders to see what calls out to you. I believe Benedictines have more of an emphasis on manual labor and self-sufficiency. Check out the Benedictines of Mary, they sing very well and celebrate in the Extraordinary Form every day. Also Dominican Sisters of Mary Mother of the Eucharist

Those two both have great albums out, they sound like angels (really wish I could be around that everyday lol)

Monasteries and convents have the duty of hospitality. This means you can go and stay for a week or so (you should make a donation, though, at least enough to cover your expenses). Contact them by email or phone and ask. Staying a bit in one or two different places before making your commitment to one may help you find out what you're seeking the most, and find an order that focuses on that.

Other than that, I've nothing to say, apart for expressing a deep admiration for you, anon. May God bless you.

Ignore those posters sister. I don't think you'll get much more out of this thread. Take what the helpful anons have given you, do some research and discernment and speak to your priest, and maybe a visit or retreat to a convent if possible. There is usually a "trial period" with any order where you take Temporary Vows after which you can leave without breaking any commitment if you find it's not the lifestyle you were looking for.

Baby steps, but give your self a good head start and replace time you waste on the internet or in front of a TV and substitute it with praying the rosary or other chaplets.
