Sisters of the Cenacle
The Cenacle Sisters in Hoschton offer retreats, seasonal days of prayer, spiritual enrichment programs and speaking engagements.
Mission of the Cenacle Sisters
Scripturally, it was in the upper room or Cenacle where Jesus, joined by his friends at the Last Supper, left a legacy of love and service. After the Ascension, in this same upper room, Mary, the apostles, and the women awaited in prayer the coming of the Holy Spirit. God transformed the hearts of Jesus’ friends in the upper room so that inflamed by the fire of Christ’s presence, they could bring God’s love to the whole world.
The mission of the Congregation of Our Lady of the Retreat in the Cenacle is rooted in the universal mission of the Church to proclaim the apostles’ message that salvation and life are in Christ. Impelled by love of Christ and concern for the world in need of this message, we give ourselves with all our strength to making the gospel known so that it may become a source of life for everyone.
Constitutions of the Cenacle
Founded in 1826, in the mountains of southern France by Saint Therese Couderc and Father Stephen Terme, the Congregation of Our Lady of the Retreat in the Cenacle is an international, apostolic community. Through retreats, spiritual direction, spiritual development programs and other forms of spiritual ministry, the Cenacle Sisters companion women and men in their search for meaning, their need to have their faith affirmed and their ability to discern the presence and action of God in their lives and in the world.
