Abby of St Walburga-the Farmhouse

The Abbey of St. Walburga is a community of Benedictine contemplative nuns located in a serene valley in northern Colorado, where the high plains meet the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. As devoted followers of the Roman Catholic Church, their primary duty is to pray the full Divine Office, seeking union with Christ through the Gospel and the inspiration of the Rule of St. Benedict. Their life of prayer is complemented by their commitment to hospitality, providing a peaceful atmosphere for individuals to intentionally seek God.

With origins rooted in the early nuns and monks of the Middle Eastern deserts, the Abbey of St. Walburga follows the living tradition of St. Benedict, who distilled his Rule for those seeking a way of life that leads to God. Their patroness, St. Walburga, played a significant role in spreading Benedictine monasticism from Anglo-Saxon England to the continent. The Abbey offers opportunities for individuals to explore their vocation as nuns and also operates an online bookstore featuring reflections by Sister Genevieve.
