A Quiet, Simple Life, Filled with Spirit of Love

We strive to allow the Word of God to become the very center of our lives. Our life as Holy Spirit Adoration Sisters is a life of silence, a life of listening to the Word of God speaking of love, joy and peace for all His people.

Our cloistered life is centered on the Eucharist. From dawn to dusk and all through the hours of the night, we, together with our fellow-sisters around the world, take turns kneeling in adoration before our Eucharistic Lord, keeping prayerful vigil on behalf of the entire world.

The most important time of each day is the Eucharistic celebration. The Liturgy of the Hours spreads to the various hours of the day the praise and thanksgiving of the Eucharistic celebration. Service of perpetual adoration is our loving response to Christ’s love for all people.

We follow this daily schedule.
