Saint Benedict's Monastery :: St. Joseph, Minnesota

» » »

The Sisters have always engaged in a rich variety of work, from diversified farming to the domestic and fine arts. In the early years, they baked, cooked, cleaned, laundered, sewed, bound books, wove cloth, designed vestments and made candles. They tended turkeys, chickens, bees, orchards, vineyards and gardens. Today, they continue many of these traditional ministries and services in addition to creating works of art and music, conducting research and writing books. They are administrators, organists, liturgists, catechists, archivists, librarians, poets, mentors, tutors and advocates for the poor.
