St Mary Monastery, Rock Island IL

Come and See Benedictine Experience Weekends

Who will dwell in your tent, O God; who will find rest upon your holy mountain? Rule of Benedict

To give you a chance to learn about Benedictine Sisters and our way of life, we host several vocation events every year (see below). But you are always welcome here. Call or e-mail Sr. Bobbi to set up a time, if your schedule doesn't mesh with the one below. You are our guest: there is no cost to you. We look forward to sharing a morning, evening, weekend or week with you!

Benedictine Experience Weekend During this weekend vocation retreat you will join us in prayer and at table, in quiet and in social time. We want you to get to know us! Upcoming dates include April 26-28 or May 31-June 2. Call or email for availability.

Sunday at the Monastery For a glance at our Benedictine Sisters' lives, join us on a Sunday morning for a tour, Lauds, Eucharist, brunch, and a short question and answer session with the Sisters. Call or email for availability.

As You Like If your busy life doesn't allow you the opportunity to participate in a scheduled event, schedule your own! Whether you want to chat about religious life, pray with the Sisters in chapel, or live with us for a weekend, you are welcome.

Call or e-mail Sr. Bobbi to set up a time that suits you!
