Drawn by the irresistible Love of God, desiring a life of deeper union with Him at the service of our brothers and sisters in the Church and the world, those who seem to show authentic signs of a vocation can be offered the opportunity of an initial monastic experience in our communities.

This initial time of discernment and getting to know one another lasts for at least one year.

PURSUED BY CHRIST 

- POSTULANCY

​

If they choose to continue on their journey with Him, in and with our community,

they will be offered a solid formation which is both faithful to tradition and adapted

to the needs of our time.

​

It is above all a question of leading people into a human and Christian maturity

sufficient to dedicate themselves freely to the service of Christ the

Redeemer. This they do through the grace of God,

with full knowledge and with a joyful heart.

 We seek to help discern in those who cross the threshold of the Monastery door,  

the human and spiritual qualities necessary to live the

Redemptoristine life and a true call from God, always mindful

that "He has come that they may have life and have it to the full. (John 10:10)"

​

The postulancy is a time of inquiry and searching: it is not yet the novitiate.

However, entry into monastic life already implies an important change: the

postulant renounces her independence and orientates herself

towards a new way of life.
