"I have had a
blessed retreat: quiet comfort, nourishment of the soul and
body. It is evident how attentive is the community to the
atmosphere of prayer and hospitality." - Lucia Clark
"What a lovely
and peaceful place in which to come away and seek the Lord, with
no distractions. The sisters were both friendly and
helpful, and I enjoyed reading about St. Francis. My stay
here was fruitful and I pray that I will be able to come again
sometime." -
Ursala Donaldson
