Welcome to...
BENET
HILL
MONASTERY
 The
38-member community of Benet Hill Monastery
in the
Diocese of Colorado Springs
was founded on June 14, 1965 in the shadow of Pikes Peak and in the purple mist
of the Colorado Rocky Mountains.
The heart of our ministry is seeking God in the monastic community, praise of
God in liturgy, growing in God through contemplation and study, and serving God
by using our gifts and talents in a variety of ministries.
Benet Hill is a community that supports and
challenges all who come and share our lives. We are Benedictine women who give
special attention to our liturgical celebrations. We believe in the special
giftedness of women and promote their full participation in church and society.
We are a member monastery of
The Federation of
St. Scholastica and members of Benedictines for Peace, an organization of Benedictine women and
men in the United States. Join us in praying for peace.
We administer and staff
Benet
Hill Center and Benet
Pines Retreat Center. We offer a large
retreat
ministry at the Pines and the Monastery, along with educational
programs in
spirituality, contemplative prayer, mysticism, scripture and the arts. We offer
Spiritual Direction
which is available by appointment at the Center and the Pines. Our other areas
of ministry include pastoral care in parishes and hospitals, ministry to the
elderly, education in schools and parishes, and direct ministry to the
economically poor in Jamaica.
