Are you attracted by what you see here? Would you like to “come and see”? Coming to visit the monastery, meet the nuns, and experience a little bit of our Dominican monastic vocation is the best way to learn more and see if this life may be God’s plan for you. These weekends are open to a larger number of young women seeking to learn more about our contemplative Dominican vocation. Visitors stay in our guest area outside the cloister, join in our liturgical prayer, Eucharistic Adoration, and Rosary, learn about our life through reading and conversation with the Vocation Directress and other nuns, and have time for silent prayer and reflection.

There will be opportunities for prayer and silence, conferences on a particular retreat theme, and time to be with the sisters and meet others who have an earnest desire for God.

"Our charism par excellence, besides contemplation, is: going through the streets in simplicity, poverty and competence, to bring souls to the Sacraments, especially Holy Confession and Holy Communion.” Our Community motto: "Ora et Evangeliza" meaning: "Pray and Evangelize." Contemplative Spirituality: founded on the example of Jesus in the Garden of Olives, where He prayed intensely to the Father in order to fulfill the will of God (cf. Luke 22:39-43), and then on that of Mary, Martha’s sister, who in listening to Jesus demonstrated the primacy of listening which was affirmed by Christ Himself (cf. Luke 10:41-42). Itinerant - Active Spirituality: looking to Jesus who goes from town to town (cf. Matt 9:35; Mark 6:6) and sends His disciples to preach the Gospel to every creature (cf. Mark 16:15-16, 20): particularly going out into the streets with frugality (cf. Matt 10:7-10), simplicity (cf. Matt 10:16), and knowledge (cf. John 17:3; 1Cor 13:11; 14:20; 2Pt 1:2).
