VISITING THE MONASTERY

The Monastery is a humble farmhouse, set on 20 acres of farmland between Deniliquin and Mathoura, about 55km north of Echuca, Vic.

The Chapel is open daily during daylight hours for friends of the Sisters who wish to visit the Blessed Sacrament. The Sisters’ private Holy Mass is usually at 8am. If you would like to attend, please use the contact email form to confirm the time. Note that it can take a few days for our volunteer assistants to respond to email requests.

Due to the demands of their cloistered eremitical life, the Nuns do not normally meet with visitors. However, it is possible to leave a prayer intention or donated goods with the Chapel Nuns who take care of visitors.
