Permission has been granted... His Eminence, Franc Cardinal Rodé, Prefect of the Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life has communicated permission to establish a monastery for the Poor Clares of Perpetual Adoration here in San Antonio.

We can now prepare in earnest for the arrival of five nuns from Our Lady of the Angels Monastery in Hanceville, Alabama. They will be taking up residence in our St. Joseph Parish House. There is, of course, a chapel there with the Blessed Sacrament, although they will be attending Mass ordinarily here at the parish. We’re looking forward to welcoming the Sisters as part of our extended “Atonement Family,” and we need to pray for them as they get ready to leave their present beloved monastery to begin this new work.

That's wonderful news! I pray for God's blessings upon their work and service to our Lord! 

I have been praying of late that one of the orders of monks or nuns might establish a monastery or convent in my native Bristol, Tennessee. There is an old mansion, now empty, next door to my old  elementary school which might be good for a convent or monastery (located at 924 Maryland, Avenue, Bristol, Tennessee).  Some monks and nuns serving in that area would be a blessing for it.
