A monastic experience weekend for men and women seeking their vocation in life.

St. Benedict asks “Who is the one who longs for life?”…. Are you longing for life?

The monastic path, set out by St. Benedict, has been followed by monks and nuns for centuries, as they have answered God’s call to the fulness of life. Each and every person has a unique call from God. The question is “What does the Lord your God ask of you?”.

This is an invitation to encounter God in the Monastery, to live alongside the community for a weekend in order to experience our way of life. It is open to those who are seeking their place in the Church, men and women, who have not already made a life commitment.

The weekend includes all meals from Friday supper to Sunday lunch. Donation welcome.
