Family Gathering
This gathering has been cancelled, the next Family Gathering is Dec. 20, 2025
Calling all families with children! Children’s Ministry invites you to join our next Family Gathering, Saturday, October 18, 3:00-6:00 pm at Holy Wisdom Monastery.
Enjoy a relaxed afternoon concluding with an opportunity to share a meal. Children are invited to join Sarah Wilkin Gibart for prayer and creative work time in the spirit of the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, tailored for 6–9-year-olds.
Parents, this is your time! You may choose to join in the children’s program or enjoy the monastery grounds: explore the prairie, take in the art exhibit, relax in the library, or simply have time for coffee and conversation. Childcare will also be available for the youngest ones, ages 0-5. Those children and adults who wish may join the sisters for Evening Prayer at 4:30 pm, and we will reconvene for supper at 5:15 pm.
Registration cost includes a simple entree prepared by the culinary team using fresh, seasonal offerings (families may also wish to bring a side dish or dessert to share).
Come be in community, play, rest, reflect, and get to know and support one another!
