Benedictine nuns

Benedictine nuns are members of a monastic community who follow the Rule of Saint Benedict, a guideline for communal living established in the 6th century. They emphasize a balance of prayer, work, and study, dedicating their lives to God and service. Typically living in monasteries, they engage in liturgical worship, expressed through the Liturgy of the Hours, alongside various forms of labor, such as teaching, hospitality, or crafts. Benedictine nuns value community life, humility, and hospitality, aiming to foster a spiritual atmosphere rooted in tradition and shared faith.
