When: Saturday, October 5, 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Cost: This event is free; the day is a gift to participants.
The Event was a great success. Our visitors arrived at the monastery before 8:00 am to join our Saturday Eucharistic community. Following the Eucharist we enjoyed a modest brunch and a presentation by Sister Beth on COMMUNITY which is a central aspect of Poor Clare life and a needed focus for our country and our world at this time. The group left St. Clare’s at 10:30 to continue their visits to Communities of Benedictines, St. Joseph Sisters and School Sisters of Notre Dame. There are tentative plans for another opportunity to visit Religious Communities in January.
