Join Us - Our Lady of Perpetual Adoration Monastery

A Personal Invitation

God Does Not Call the Perfect. He Calls the Willing.

Life at Our Lady of Perpetual Adoration Monastery is one of joyful surrender. It is structured around prayer, communal life, sacred work, and the perpetual adoration of Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament. You will find sisters who are joyful, grounded, and deeply at peace.

You do not have to have it all figured out. You only need a willing heart and the courage to take the first step.

God does not call the perfect. He calls the willing. And once called, He does the perfecting.

The Sacred Journey

The Formation Pathway

❖

Every step of the way, you are accompanied, guided, and prayed for. Here is what the path looks like from your first enquiry to your final yes.

Initial Enquiry

A phone call or email to our Vocation Directress. No commitment. Just a conversation to learn about each other and to pray together.

Visit and Discernment

You come to visit the monastery, experience the rhythm of prayer and community, and pray before making any decision. God’s call is confirmed in stillness.

Postulancy

You join the community in the postulant habit, learning the life from the inside: the prayers, the silences, the work, the sisterhood.

Novitiate

A time of deeper formation. Spiritual direction, study of the Rule and Constitution, liturgical prayer, media training, and preparing the whole person for consecrated life.

Temporary Vows

A first, joyful profession of temporary vows, renewed annually as your vocation continues to deepen and mature.

Final Profession

The solemn, perpetual, and irreversible gift of yourself to God. The greatest moment of a consecrated woman’s life.
