Come and See Visits

After coming on a Vocation Discernment Retreat and following further discussion with our community, women who are drawn to our way of life can request to come for a more extended Come and See visit of about 8 days. During this time guests can enter more fully into the daily schedule of prayer, work, ministry and fraternal life at Our Lady of Sorrows Monastery. Vocation guests may have the opportunity to work with the sisters in the Motherhouse, minister to nursing home residents with the postulants and novices, have a meal with sisters in a mission house, or minister with sisters doing our downtown ministries. The women who come are able to experience how our life of Franciscan contemplative prayer and penance flows into our spiritual and corporal works of mercy.
