There are good orders: support them today...


A girl I went to high school with, Sr. Diana Marie, is now a nun in Tuscany with a French order.

Mother Marie, Sr. Diana Marie's superior, is asking for help. The community moved into an historic old fire-damaged palace near Florence that had been abandoned for some years and requires extensive repairs, among them a new roof and a kitchen as noted below.

If you are able to help, checks may be sent directly to the address noted below, in U.S. dollars or Euro. (I think contributions are tax deductible. If you need a receipt, just include a note to that effect with your donation. See thier site here: http://www.institute-christ-king.org/AdorersRoyalHeart.htm).

Very dear parents,

Before all, we wish to assure you of all our fervent prayers for our dear daughters, and for all their intentions and needs which are not lacking, during this month of June, month of the Sacred Heart whom we implore… ALL with confidence!

I come today humbly to solicit your aid to collect the funds necessary to purchase a custom kitchen which is becoming absolutely necessary. The quotes rise above 20,000 Euros. It is an immense cost, with the purchase of professional material (oven, stove and overhead, sink, dishwasher) with which all the convents are equipped for large communities. It is certainly definitely due.

Could you help us by making known to those around you this need and solicit their generosity? As you know, we presently have a small sink that we found in the pile of debris, held up by cement blocks, a table made of plywood laid on braces, and a stove which is sized for a young couple with no children. Our cooks are courageous, but the announce of future postulants is pressing on us, the conditions of life becoming too difficult.
I depend with all my heart on your aid and thank you in advance for all that you will do to help us, as always.

With all my profound affection,
In Corde Regis,


Mother Marie of the Love of God

God bless the Order of Sisters Adorers of Royal Heart of Jesus Christ S.P.!
Now, the number of these traditional nuns are growing (with many nuns from USA too!), like also the Sisters Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles in Ephesus (near Kansas City, MO).
