and radiant presence of Christ.' Constitution 47
On August 5, 2024 the Redemptoristine Nuns bade farewell Carmelite Monastery of the Incarnation. For eleven years we shared in mutual
charity an affinity and compatibility found in our traditions of prayer,
work and leisure for the benefit and enrichment of both our communities and for the salvation of the world.
In 1957, our Monastery of Our Mother of Perpetual Help was the first foundation of Redemptoristines in the United States. It was situated
on the property of the Redemptorists’ seminary of Mount St. Alphonsus, Esopus, New York which later became a Redemptorist retreat center.
In 2001, a smaller monastery was built on the Redemptorist property to better accommodate our needs. In 2013, we moved to Beacon to share
living space with the Carmelites. Prayerfully, they assessed their needs
and discerned their need to better care for their Sisters and deepen their vocations elsewhere.
Therefore, we Redemptoristines, also searched for a place to live our lives and found the Dominican Sisters of Sparkill, New York. We were joyfully welcomed August 6, 2024 by these Sisters with an active apostolate.
They are grateful for our contemplative presence among them.
And so, we continue our Redemptoristine life of prayer as a Living Memory
of Jesus among our Dominican Sisters of Sparkill.
