Arranged Historically by Date of Foundation
We trace our European roots as Benedictines
to EICHSTÄTT, Bavaria.
The first Benedictine women made a home in North America at
St. Joseph's (1852) in St. Marys, Pennsylvania
Some of those pioneers and their successors answered faith-filled calls to settle and serve in an expanding nation and across the seas:
