Sacred Spaces

Sacred Places, Sacred Spaces. Images may come to you at the sight of those words. You may remember a spot that you considered sacred. A sacred space is a location at which prayer flows easily for many and, with each prayer sent to God, the space becomes hallowed.

You are invited to explore some of the sacred spaces at Monastery Immaculate Conception. These sites are blessed and have been designated as prayer places. If you should find yourself near our monastery, you are invited to spend some time resting and reflecting in our prayer spaces.


Hildegard's Labyrinth

Fatima Shrine

Stations of the Cross

Lourdes Grotto

Rosary Steps

Our Lady of Guadalupe Shrine

  • Choose spiritual tools for your space-the Bible or other sacred reading, images of God, candles, plants, water fountains, quiet music

  • Create a space free of distractions.
