Do You Hear the Call?
The woman said to him, “Sir give me this water, so that I may never be thirsty or have to keep coming here to draw water.” (John 4:15)
Imagine yourself at the well with Jesus. Ask Him what He wants you to do. What is the answer that you hear?
If you hear the gentle yet persistent call, “Follow me”, consider religious life.
The Benedictine Sisters of Florida are welcoming single women who are practicing Roman Catholics to spend some time with us to learn more about religious life. You will have the opportunity to worship with us, pray with us, relax with us. You will also be welcome to participate in our ministries and learn about the Benedictine charism.

Hello my name is Jessica,I am 36 years old and I have been contemplating a live in a convent for 4 years now. I feel afraid to heed my call. I tried to ignore this call but it keeps coming back and I thing god is leading me to take action. I wanted to see if I could visit for a few days at your monestary and pray about this. Please let me know if that is a possibility. I currently live in panama city beach so I’m not sure how far away you are located from me. God bless,Jessica
