Come, discern a future with us.

Every Christian is called to "repent, and believe in the gospel" (Mk 1:15), and to a conversion that will free the heart for God and the kingdom.

Dedicated to a contemplative life, Dominican nuns are "called by God, like Mary, to sit at the feet of Jesus and listen to his words" (cf. Lk 10:39). "In freedom of spirit" she seeks God in a life wholly oriented toward this goal.  Our monastic enclosure, with silence, study, work and penance, contribute to the growth of our life of prayer, to a living relationship with God and His body the Church. We are also supported by our communal life of love for one another, which we joyfully share with anyone. Together, as community we try to seek the will of the Father so that his universal kingdom of love might be realized in our midst and the world.

Are you discerning a call from God?

Our Novice Mistress, will welcome your request to visit with us. You can speak to her about your call and discuss any concerns or questions you may have about our way of life. She can also help you become more acquainted with us and our Monastic life at Mary the Queen.
