The first one we took over--Women in Discernment--is open primarily to women discerning religious vocations. When I say we took it over, the owner had planned to enter a monastery, and we took it over for her.

I don't recall which ones came after that. We open them according to discerners' needs. Here are the others:
Young Vocations (for those 17 and younger):

Delayed Vocations (ages 30 and older):
http://groups.yahoo.com/groups/delayed_vocations/
Ecclesia Dei Vocations (those attracted to the Extraordinary Form of the Latin Rite/Latin Mass):
http://groups.yahoo.com/groups/Ecclesia_Dei_Vocations/
Nearly Nun Club (for women who were in religious life, but had to leave for one reason or another):
http://groups.yahoo.com/groups/nearly_nun_club/
Catholic Vocations Asia (for those discerners in that part of the world):
http://groups.yahoo.com/groups/catholic_vocations_asia/
Pardon the spacing there. The system has done something weird.
