ST. SCHOLASTICA MONASTERY

WOMEN’S “COME AND SEE” WEEKEND

In John’s Gospel (1:38-39) Jesus answers two disciples who had been following Him and asked where He was dwelling by saying, “Come and you will see.”

Single, Catholic women ages 18-45 who are pondering how they might follow Jesus more closely are invited to “Come and see” life within a Benedictine monastery. The weekend provides an opportunity to meet, live, and pray with women who have devoted their lives to serving God and His people by following the Rule of St. Benedict. The weekend begins with Evening Prayer on Friday evening and concludes at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday with brunch following Eucharist.

The “retreat” is informative, including sessions on prayer, discernment, the meaning of the vows, the various forms of consecrated life, plus the opportunity to visit with Sisters, ask questions, and enjoy the Monastery campus. There is no charge for the retreat but registration is required.

For more information on the next weekend retreat, contact Sister Mary Catherine at 218-723-6646 or at mcshambour@duluthosb.org.
