L.I.V.E. - Benedictine Cohousing Companions Information
With Sr. Teresa Jackson, OSB
December 11, 2021
For over 1500 years Benedictine women and men have been leading lives of prayer, community, simplicity and service. Does that appeal to you, but you aren’t called to be a sister? Today, we are exploring how women can live Benedictine, community life without making vows. At the Monastery of St. Gertrude in Cottonwood, Idaho we are creating a new way of living Benedictine life for single women of any Christian tradition. The Benedictine Cohousing Companions (BCC) will be a group of women sharing life with the sisters while creating their own community.
Intrigued? Want to know more? On Saturday, Dec. 11th at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time there will be a ZOOM presentation with an opportunity for questions and discussion about the Benedictine Cohousing Companions. The time will be about an hour with a brief presentation and time for questions and discussion.
St. Gertrude’s L.I.V.E. (Living In a Virtual Environment) offers online programs to further opportunities for prayer, learning, community, and spiritual growth from a Benedictine perspective. We look forward to bringing St. Gertrude’s to you, wherever you are.
