It is an opportunity to meet members of our community and to get a sense of the tone and tempo of our religious life, as well as to become acquainted with the nature of our apostolate. We are a Catholic congregation of religious women living in community. We take the vows of poverty, chastity and obedience and pursue a deep prayer life. Our unified apostolate witnesses to the sanctity of life at all stages. We nurse incurable cancer patients in seven modern Homes.
All care is free.
Many who enter our Community have no prior nursing experience. Single Catholic women between the ages of 17-30 are invited to a weekend of prayer and spiritual enrichment. This monastic experience will include retreat talks, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the celebration of the Sacrament of Penance, community prayer of the Divine Office and rosary, adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, periods of silence, as well as time with the Dominican Sisters. Join with the Carmelites in their prayer, meals and recreation. Take time to chat one on one with a Sister.
