Cloistered Nuns Share Life Behind Atlanta Walls
A rare Atlanta Journal look inside the Visitation Monastery in Druid Hills reveals ten cloistered nuns ages 22 to past 70. They keep silent during meals and follow a daily 5:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. routine of prayer, study, and work. They bake altar bread for 50 Georgia churches and maintain gardens while supporting the world through prayer. Mother Superior Eulalia says they are not escapists and aim for salvation through their contemplative life.
