A Week at the Monastery

A Week at the Monastery

seeking single women explorers
for a new way of life

Do you get a little nudge from time to time that God may have a different kind of life in store for you? A life where you live in community with like-minded women?

We invite you to join us for a week of community living. You’ll experience many aspects of our daily life and work, and learn about the Rule of Benedict, our guide for living the ordinary life extraordinarily well. You’ll have the opportunity to ask us questions and talk with us about your spiritual journey and hopes for the future.

If you are a single Christian woman, contact us to learn more about A Week at the Monastery.
