Learn about their prayer life and lifestyles. Learn about their ministries and where they live.

You’ll meet their Sisters.

You’ll screen and discuss films about Catholic women religious.

You’ll enjoy the companionship of your hosts, the Benedictine Sisters, who will provide tours, conversation and answers all weekend long.

In the end, you may find yourself one step closer to knowing where you belong.
