Description
The lower windows along the side aisles depict a series of women saints: HIldegard, Walburga, Gertrude, Agnes, and Thérèse of Lisieux. Also featured in these aisle windows are Jesus the Good Shepherd, King David, St. Anna and the child Mary, and the Guardian Angel. Fittingly, the image of King David stands just behind the choir stalls, where for over 100 years the Sisters have chanted the Psalms of David.
In addition to seasonal clothing and comfortable shoes, please bring all toiletries and other personal items you may need. Other suggested items include an alarm clock and an umbrella. You may also wish to bring a journal, and a book or two for spiritual reading. If attending a group retreat, there may be additional items suggested by your group leader. We provide sheets, blankets, pillows, towels, and wash cloths.
Monastic women and men who follow the Rule of St. Benedict belong to a 1,500-year tradition of seeking God and witnessing to Christ through a lifelong commitment to prayer and community living. Inevitably, this vowed life overflows into a wide variety of works and forms of service that respond to the needs of specific social and cultural environments.
