Benedictine Sisters of Perpetual Adoration Tucson, Arizona

Our Congregation

"prefer nothing to the love of Christ..." With Saint Benedict's words burning in their hearts, Mother Mary Anselma and four sisters bid farewell to their beloved community in Switzerland responding to God's call to go to America in 1874.

Hearts afire with love, this small monastic community sacrificed much in order to give themselves entirely to Jesus Christ in the Eucharist through devoted work and prayer.

Today we have monasteries in Missouri, Arizona and Wyoming. Still, the love of Christ impels us to joyfully give ourselves in devoted work and prayer for the world.
