During the Church's year of celebration of Consecrated Life (2015-16), we thought the best way we could share our life was to have a film made, showing our simple consecrated life of prayer as lived in the heart of the Church for all our brothers and sisters in the world.
"These Trappistine Sisters live their lives in obscurity, hidden from the world in a life as mysterious as it is genuine. And all for only one reason – God! They embrace a rhythm of life rooted in prayer, Lectio Divina and work in their state-of-the-art candy factory. All of it is steeped in a deep, contemplative tradition of silence and solitude. Life inside their cloistered monastery is all about preferring nothing but Jesus Christ. They live in what the Sisters call a school of mutual love, trying to find Christ in every moment of every day."
This DVD is available in our Abbey Gift Shop or on our Candy website.

“The desire to be with God! There would be no other reason to leave everything. I wanted to know God and He provided me with this vocation.”
- Sr Francesca Molino, OCSO

“Only if the Sisters prefer nothing whatever to Christ will they be happy to persevere in a life that is ordinary, obscure and laborious. And I knew when I heard that, that I wanted nothing more than Christ. And that this was a place where I could pursue that.”
- Sr Sofia Millican, OCSO

“I ask myself why did you come? It’s Him. What do you seek? It’s Him. Why do you stay? I can’t live without Him.”
- Sr Karla Goncalves, OCSO
