All are welcome at Holy Wisdom Monastery

The doors of our monastery are open to a variety of communities, groups of people who take inspiration from Benedictine monastic spirituality. We call this our Community of Communities. Would you consider joining one of these communities today?


Benedictine Sisters

Benedictine sisters form the heart of this ecumenical monastic community. We seek God through a life following the Gospel and the Rule of Benedict. Community members live, pray and work together and we welcome other single Christian women to explore life with us. Our life together as Benedictine sisters provides the foundation for all other communities of the monastery.
