Another wonderful day at the Monastery of St Alphonsus when Máire Bríd entered the Redemptoristine Nuns as a Postulant on the 21st November.  There was great jubilation as she knocked at the Enclosure door to enter the cloister to give her life to God in a deeper way. Máire Bríd has been journeying with the Redemptoristines for about two and a half years and this summer she came for one month live-in.  She is a Primary Teacher and from County Cork.  She was joined by her parents and her Aunty Nora a Columban sister.
