Today is National Get Outdoors Day! 🌳

We are blessed to be surrounded by the beauty of nature here on the monastery grounds. We hope you have an opportunity to step outside today, enjoy the fresh air, and appreciate the beauty of God's creation.

Last week, sister Laura Suhr shared her vocation story about how she decided to join Saint Benedict's Monastery, what her life is like as a Benedictine sister, and what kind of ministries our community offers.

Thank you to the Knights of Columbus Council #5548 and the Church of Saint Anthony for hosting this special event, and thank you to everyone who joined us. We were grateful for your presence, support, and participation in making the evening such a meaningful experience.
