It is our hope and desire that we steadily move toward the construction of the Monastery building and complete construction here at Our Lady of Solitude Monastery. To have a monastery and monastic enclosure is a vital part of our cloistered contemplative life and one that we look forward to with joyful anticipation! We ask that you consider becoming a “living stone” in this building project through your financial and prayerful support.
Help us turn this dream into a reality by making a Donation toward our Monastery BUILDING FUND:

Sr. Marie St. Paul has played and important and pivotal role over the years in the well thought out chapel and monastery plans along with these recently updated monastery renderings. We are so happy to now share them with you. Please continue to pray that we will soon be able to begin construction on the monastery!
