Living a life of contemplative prayer

Prayer

Community

Vision

Come Pray in Our Monastery

We would like to share our space with you. We have a Day Loft that you can use for a single day for prayer, study, etc.  We have a Retreatant’s Room that you can use for multiple overnight times of prayer.  Also, keep in mind that are chapel is available for your personal times of prayer – just come to the front door and ask the receptionist to take you to the chapel.

Loft

You are welcome to use our simple, comfortable “day loft” above the Chapel to spend the day in solitude, prayer, rest and quiet reflection.  The loft’s proximity to the chapel makes it easy to join the community for the Eucharist and Morning and Evening Prayer.

Our loft is currently undergoing renovations. We look forward to welcoming retreatants to the loft in 2025! 

 

Retreatant’s Room

We welcome you to participate in a retreat in our lovely retreatant’s room.  With its own entrance, this large comfortable sitting/bed room, with a small galley kitchen and bath, looks out into a natural wooded area connected to our larger property.

As a retreatant, you can use this space for up to two weeks.  You are provided with our dinner meal at noon and can fix whatever you wish for breakfast and supper.  You are welcome to participate in all our liturgical prayer in the Chapel and may use the beautiful meditation (Blessed Sacrament) chapel for personal prayer.  Spiritual direction is usually available upon request.

Our retreatant space is currently undergoing renovations. We look forward to welcoming retreatants to the monastery in 2025!
