The Church of Santa Maria della Misericordia is open daily for Conventual Mass to individuals and small groups. Please refer to the schedule for Mass times. Confessions are heard before the Conventual Mass on Sundays and are also available upon request. The monastery observes a full enclosure and is not open to the public for tours or visits. For special requests, please call the Porter’s Office or email [email protected].
Monks live a life of separation from the world and offline, to the extent possible. As a consequence it may take some days or weeks for them to read and respond to your message.
