Sister Catherine Elizabeth receives Dominican habit

Sister Catherine Elizabeth has received the Dominican habit and started her two year novitiate with the Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia in Nashville, Tennessee.

After completing her postulancy, she began the canonical year of her novitiate. During this period, she will receive a religious name and spend time in prayer and silence to study the vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. Her studies include theology, Scripture, the order's rule, constitutions, and community history.

Following the canonical year, she will enter an apostolic year. This stage involves immersion in the community's teaching apostolate through education classes and visits to missions. Previously, she was a student at St. Andrews University in Fife and attended vocation retreats hosted by the Archdiocese of Saint Andrews and Edinburgh.
