The lovely cake my MIL had made with holy cards of the patron saints of all of the sisters and the order's patrons.
Every room in the retreat center has a beautiful religious picture like this. If you are looking for a quiet, comfortable place to hideaway from the world, please consider one of the Sister Servants inspiring retreats.
Dying to self and to the world.
