Description
We are a small international religious community of 18 sisters of 10 different nationalities in Fontanellato, 20km from Parma, with a large monastery and just over a hectare of land to cultivate and maintain: a vegetable garden, fruit trees, a small vineyard and flowerbeds. So there is always a lot of work to be done outside and also in the house or if necessary, in our workshops.
We are also always ready to invite you to our prayer times or other activities of our life.

Aide
The tasks with us will be mainly helping in the garden, in our vegetable garden, little vineyard, in our flower beds, mowing the lawn and weeding. We also need help in our large monastery, with cleaning, possibly also with painting and organizing rooms. And occasionally we will also need help to finish our handicraft products like soaps, jams, candles etc.

The best part of all was getting to know the community of kind sisters from all over the world and discovering their way of life. Perhaps because of the busy time of year during the trip, they didn't have much time to spend with us or participate in workshops, but whenever they had the opportunity, they… read more
