Formation Pathway
From the first shy enquiry to the solemn and joyful final profession, every step of formation at OLPAM is a deeper surrender to the love of God. Here is the path a woman walks when she feels called to this life.
Initial Enquiry
A conversation with the Vocation Directress by phone or email. There is no commitment at this stage, only listening and prayer.
Visit and Discernment
The candidate visits the monastery, prays, and experiences the rhythm of community life before making any decision.
Postulancy
She joins the community wearing the postulant habit, learning the life of prayer, work, and sisterhood from the inside.
Novitiate
Deeper formation through spiritual direction, study of the Rule, liturgical prayer, and apostolate training.
Temporary Vows
A first, joyful profession of temporary vows, renewed annually as she continues to grow in her calling.
Final Profession
The solemn, perpetual gift of self to God. A total yes, offered with an open heart and a grateful soul.
