Our Lady of the Rock Monastery is a Benedictine monastery of women located in the heart of the beautiful San Juan Islands of Washington state. The monastery, a dependent priory of the Abbey of Regina Laudis in Bethlehem CT, is a place of recollection and prayer. Set amidst 300 acres of forest and farmland, the nuns strive to live out their lives faithful to the traditions handed on to them by their holy founders, Saint Benedict and Saint Scholastica.
Weaving Workshop for Community and Interns-September 2024
During September 2024 the Monastery's Oblate Karen Anderson treated our young community members and interns to an intensive weaving workshop. Karen is a master weaver who has studied weaving techniques and traditions around the world. With her expert help we are working towards developing a Fiber Arts Department here at the Monastery.
