We, the Sisters of St. Benedict of Ferdinand, Indiana, are monastic women seeking God through the Benedictine tradition of community life, prayer, hospitality, and service to others. By our life and work, we commit ourselves to be a presence of peace as we join our sisters and brothers in the common search for God.

Reflection: Matthew 11:28-30
15th Thursday in Ordinary Time – Matthew 11:28-30
The Gospel reading for today is a gentle, loving and tender passage. Jesus says to each of us: “Come to me! Bring your burdens, your sorrows and your pain to me. I will lift your burden from your shoulders. I will ease your pain and your sorrow!”
Then stay with me for a while and “learn from me.” If you do this every day, you will find rest, true rest. You will be peaceful, serene and joyful! Truly my “yoke is easy, and my burden light.” “Come to me!” I am here waiting for you! I will wait forever if I need to! Will you come today?
