Come pray with us in the heart of the night during this special liturgical season preparing us to the birth of Jesus at Christmas!

Fall Retreat
Come join the Community for a weekend of prayer and fellowship, as we walk together through the beautiful Kansas countryside in the footsteps of one of our beloved local saints, St. Rose Philippine Duchesne, who lived as a missionary among the Native American Pottawatomi Tribe at Sugar Creak Mission in Kansas. Exact dates will be forthcoming.


Triduum Retreat
The Paschal Triduum, the “source and summit” of our liturgical year, is a privileged opportunity to enter more deeply into the mystery of our salvation. Come spend the Triduum in prayer , joining us for this liturgical retreat during which the monastic offices of the community will help you to contemplate and accompany Jesus, step-by-step, from the upper room to the garden of Gethsemane, from Mount Golgotha to the empty tomb of the Resurrection.
Come and help
Whether it’s gardening or landscaping, correcting liturgical booklets or cleaning the chapels, chopping wood or raking leaves, there is always plenty of work to be done at the little monasteries, and we appreciate all those who are willing to help!
For questions about retreats or volunteering, or to sign-up, simply give us a call at one of the little monasteries.


Visit any time
Come and “draw water at the living springs of salvation”…
Anytime throughout the year, you may request to come spend time with God at one of the little monasteries, while experiencing our life of prayer and fraternal communion, whether for a weekend or for a few days during the week.
Simply reach out either to the little sisters in Kansas City or to the little brothers in Kansas City.
