Prayer

Join Us in Prayer

Prayer is a wonderful way to hear and draw close to God. By listening, we become the people God created us to be and can help our world grow towards peace. Prayer is also a central practice of Benedictine life and we welcome you to join with us in one of the following ways:

Prayer Requests

Let us join you in prayer for a special intention. Send us your prayer by clicking here and we will place your prayer intention anonymously in our chapel prayer book.

If you would like to request a mass to be said in honor of someone or a special occasion, please call our sub-prioress at 773.764.2413 x231. If asked, we can also send a special card in your name acknowledging a Memorial, Congratulatory, Sympathy, or Well-wish.

Daily Prayer

We invite you to join us for weekday evening prayer. During the Sundays of Advent and Lent we hold Sung Vespers. If you are interested in joining us for weekday evening prayer or for Sung Vespers, call Sister Susan Quaintance, OSB at 773.764.2413 x231.

Sunday Mass

Mass is celebrated most Sundays at the monastery. If you are interested in joining us, call Sister Susan Quaintance, OSB at 773.764.2413 x231. She will be able to tell you what time Mass is celebrated on a particular Sunday.

Scripture Reflections

We offer daily scripture reflections on our Facebook page here.

We also offer occasional weekly scripture reflections based on special feasts or the

Sunday gospels here and Feast Day gospels here.
