OUR DAY AT A GLANCE

The monastic day is structured around the Liturgy of the Eucharist and the Liturgy
of the Hours. On Sundays and Feasts, the schedule is slightly different.

12:00 AM
 OFFICE OF READING
  Silent Prayer. Retire.



 The sisters should so arrange the details of their daily living that there is no dichotomy between work and prayer. Our work will be availing before God according as it is sanctified and made fruitful by prayer, and our generous and recollected manner of working will add new energy and fervor to our prayer.  - Constitutions
