Catholic Sister Week – What We Do

March 13, 2022 by Holy Name Monastery Leave a Comment

Catholic Sisters Week – What We Do

One of our Sisters was once asked by a student, “What do you do in the monastery all day?”

We pray daily and include the prayers and petitions of all those who have contacted us with a prayer request.

We provide welcome for our guests and provide them with a quiet place for prayer, rest, and reflection.

We assist those struggling to feed their families by supporting Daystar Hope Center in Pasco County, Heifer International, the Love One Another Initiative, and many other charities.

We provide spiritual support through our trained spiritual directors.

We provide a Christian witness through our presence in and support of a variety of charitable organizations in Pasco County, Florida and beyond.

We sponsor social events in an effort to build community with others.

We advocate for the poor and disenfranchised with state and national legislators.

We have an Aqua/Hydroponics facility to raise awareness of the importance of quality food and nutrition.

We witness to the importance of faithfulness and commitment to the local community through our 133-year presence in East Pasco County.

Our Corporate Commitment. sums it up:  We, the Benedictine Sisters of Florida, commit ourselves and our resources to respond with the compassion of Christ to the hungers of the people of God.

That’s what we do.
