I just spent 5 days in the cloister at the Visitation Monastery in Mobile, Alabama.
The monastery is historic and absolutely beautiful. They will accept older
vocations. I entered at this monastery 5 years ago but did not stay, I have
remained friends with the sisters. Being there for my retreat I felt a desire
to return. If anyone is interested in visiting this monastery you can email
me and I will give you their address and phone number. I would encourage
anyone discerning monastic life to visit this community. They wear a full
habit and live by their rule.
In Christo,
Abscondita
