Hello! My name is Miranda Edgar and I am from Hot Springs, Arkansas. I am eighteen years old which makes me the youngest of three. Both my brother and sister are enjoying the vocation to the married life. During high school I played on the varsity bowling team learned how much I enjoy bowling. I also enjoy listening to music, driving around, and spending time with others. My favorite saint is St. Faustina because of her constant yes to God. I was drawn to the Sisters by their joy in giving everything up for Christ. When I left the convent for the first time I felt as if I was saying good-bye to my family.
Today, on the Feast of the Birth of Mary, our new postulants entered the postulancy of our American Province of the Sisters of St. Francis of the Martyr St. George! We thank God for the gift of these vocations. Pictured above - on their very first full day in the convent - are (from left) Ashley Vola, Samantha Goodson, Miranda Edgar, Jennifer Clark and Erin Leis. Welcome, Postulants! We Sisters are grateful that you have accepted Christ's invitation to belong totally to Him in our Franciscan community, and we support you wholeheartedly with our prayers and help! If you would like to send a word of welcome and encouragement to these new postulants, we will pass the greetings along to them. Just leave them as a "comment"!
