WHO WE ARE
We are a monastery affiliated with the Orthodox Church in America (OCA), tending a spiritual garden on the frontiers of paradise for the glory of God. Our monastery serves Orthodox Christians and others of all ethnic backgrounds and cultural traditions.
We do not currently accept overnight visitors, unless they are young men aspiring to become novices in order to to discern their possible monastic vocation.
