Frequently Asked Questions

You must be very special people to live this life!

Do you pray all the time?

Aren’t you just opting out of the difficulties of life, running away from the real world and rejecting it?

But wouldn’t you be better off out doing something for the world? Isn’t it wasteful and selfish to lock yourselves away in your peaceful monastery?

Do you really know what’s going on in the world? How do you stay in touch?

Surely contemporary women find this life very outdated and oppressive?

Why do you get up so early?

How would I know if I had a vocation?
