Pentecost, the day when the Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles and others followers of Jesus, signifies the end of the Easter season and is always a special celebration in the Monastery.

Every year on this solemnity, every sister is given a special card during midmorning prayer.
2025 Pentecost card
On the back of each card is a different gift and fruit of the Holy Spirit.
At evening recreation, we share with each other what the Holy Spirit has specially given us.
Throughout the next year, we reflect on the special way that the Holy Spirit is working in our lives to help us in our monastic community and to strengthen our relationship with God.
