Christmas 2020-2021 at Santa Rita Abbey

Here are some scenes from our quiet Christmas celebration. With our chapel still closed to the public and our would-be Christmas chaplain unable to travel, it was just the eleven of us Sisters. And Jesus, Mary and Joseph, of course!

Below is a link to our Mother Vicki’s reflection on Christmas Day. She offered us several such reflections throughout the Christmas season. Visit our Reflections on the Gospel page to read them all.

A CHILD IS BORN TO US

We continue to keep all the peoples of our country and our world in our very special prayers during the pandemic. This was a difficult Christmas for many, and the new year is off to a rocky start, but we know that God holds all of his children in his heart.

A Weekend of Prayer, Peace, and Possibility!

Step away from the noise and into the rhythm of monastic life. If you’re a Catholic woman discerning your path, our Monastic Experience Weekend offers a rare opportunity to explore contemplative life at Santa Rita Abbey.

Friday, October 4 – Monday, October 7
