Day Visits
In God's providence monasteries are holy places not only for those who are of
the household of the faith but for all persons of good will. - OCSO Constitutions
All are welcome to attend church services and walk the grounds. In addition our Welcome Center is open Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Retreats
He said to them, “Come away by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while.” - Mark 6:31
We offer silent, self-guided retreats for men and women of all faiths year round. Our retreat house provides clean, simple rooms, three meals a day and freedom to seek God away from the noise of the world.
