The Sisters of Saint Benedict have a history spanning more than 150 years in Central Minnesota. Their purpose is to seek God through prayer and ministry to others as they live the Rule of St. Benedict.

The Sisters now concentrate their outreach to meet the emerging needs of the 21st century, needs that are primarily those of spirituality and social justice. These services and spiritual ministries are not self-sustaining and are, as in the past, subsidized by the Sisters and their donor-partners.

If you have questions about ways to support the Benedictine Sisters, please contact S. Gen Maiers, OSB, at 320-363-7183 or send an e-mail to her at gmaiers@csbsju.edu.
