We invite you to continue your spiritual journey with us

Benedictine spirituality animates the life and work of our ecumenical monastic community. This spirituality reminds seekers never to lose hope in God's mercy (Rule of Benedict 4-73). The journey through life is one we walk together. At Holy Wisdom Monastery, we embrace a vision of inclusive membership in our monastic community. This means a woman of any Christian tradition is welcome to explore a call to our way of life.

As Benedictine Women of Madison, we:

• welcome all to join in prayer
• offer hospitality to all
• practice justice in our relationships
• are diligent in caring for the earth

Our community has put down strong roots in Madison. We encourage you to join us in preserving and protecting this sacred space.
