The aim of the postulancy is to initiate the candidates into the
life-style and work of the Congregation, to examine their aptitudes and
motivations, and to prepare them for the novitiate.
During the postulancy which lasts at least six months and at most one
year, fundamentals of doctrine help the postulants to deepen their
prayer life. Study of the history of the Congregation initiates them
into the life of the Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres.
