Our next Come and See Retreat Day
will be on Saturday, September 13, 2025

8:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.

 

Single, practicing Catholic women, ages 18-38, are eligible to discern their vocation with the Dominican nuns during these retreat days. Candidates must be in good physical and mental health, with no history of addiction or allergies that prohibit them from the common life. They must have least a high school diploma or equivalent.

The event includes praying the Divine Office with the nuns, reflections by speakers, time for prayer before the Blessed Sacrament, opportunities for Q&A with the nuns, and to hear some of the nuns' vocation stories. All sessions provide information and tools useful for discernment and one-on-one meetings after the retreat will also be available.

Overnight accommodation is very limited and is reserved for those travel from afar and who have already contacted the vocation directress and made arrangements.

Cost: There is no cost for a "Come and See" Day, but donations are welcome.
