Past participant testimonials:

“Having been raised Catholic and gone to a Catholic college, I had heard about monastic life, but I wanted to see it to be able to understand it. It’s like putting a face to a name. Now I want to spread the word of the beauty of this special vocation.” — Colleen

“It has been an amazing and humbling experience to be able to see your lives of service and love for God … It has been a huge learning experience for my personal prayer life and the way I view prayer.”
— Bernadette

“I have never experienced anything like this before, but it has been incredible! I will forever hold it in my heart as a life-changing weekend.” –Clarissa
