“Cast your care upon God for He watches over you, and will not forget you. Do not think that He leaves you alone.”
(St. John of the Cross, Letter 21)
Is Our Lord calling your heart, to keep Him company in the Most Blessed Sacrament, to love Him and offer your life to Him?
Come and join us in our beautiful vocation!
Prayer:
Lord, let me know clearly the work which you are calling me to do in life, and help me to answer that call with courage and love, and lasting dedication to Thy will. Amen.
Our Monastery is located about 20 miles northeast of Grand Rapids, Michigan, in a tiny, picturesque farming area called Parnell. Our mailing address is Ada.
We are just west of the historic St. Patrick’s Church with its tall steeple, which we can see illuminated at night from our monastery.
