I find the life of religious brothers and sisters fascinating. I wonder sometimes, if I were to join an order, which would it be? What would I be most suited to? So, I wonder, what about the rest of you?
If you were to join an order, what sort would you join? Would you prefer cloistered and contemplative? Active? And if you joined an active order, which sort of work would you want to do?
For the menfolk, do you think you'd be better suited to life as a parish priest or would you join an order?
Personally, I think I would either join an contemplative order (the idea of being devoted entirely to prayer is a lovely one) or an active one in the healthcare or missions field. I think my personality would be more suited to an active one, but I still like the idea of building my life around prayer.
What about everyone else?
