Daily Schedule
Our Community seeks to live the Cistercian charism. It is a life lived in community, a life of prayer, nurtured by daily manual work and Lectio Divina.
Lectio Divina is a meditative way of reading, listening to and pondering upon the word of God.
The Community seeks to foster an atmosphere of silence in the monastery, working at various tasks in a way that does not hinder this, but enables each member of the Community to make her spiritual journey together with her sisters.
Speech is valued and dialogue developed as a way of promoting mutual understanding and sharing the fruits of the Spirit in joy, love, patience and kindness towards one another.
