Description
Welcome to the website of the Poor Clares of Perpetual Adoration of Our Lady of Solitude in Black Canyon City, Arizona (located about 40 miles north of Phoenix). In the beginning of May 2005, our little Community of five Sisters traveled on a "cross-country" adventure which led us to our new home on a mountain-top in the heart of the Arizonan desert! Our Founding Monastery (Our Lady of the Angels Monastery in Alabama) is overflowing with vocations. We were literally bursting at the seams with over 40 Sisters! And so, following the lead of Divine Providence and at the kind invitation of the Bishop of Phoenix,
Most Reverend Thomas J. Olmsted, we have been blessed with the awesome opportunity to establish a Throne for Our Eucharistic King in the West!
We are a Cloistered Community of Contemplative Nuns, known as the Poor Clares of Perpetual Adoration. Eucharistic Adoration is our apostolate, for as our Foundress, Mother Marie of St. Claire, once said: "We are adorers of the Most Blessed Sacrament and the purpose of our adoration is thanksgiving." Essentially, we begin to do on earth what every blessed soul will do for all eternity: praise, adore, and offer thanksgiving to our God.
