About Monastery of Mary the Queen

The Monastery of Mary the Queen in Girard, Illinois is a Dominican contemplative community for women rooted in the charism of prayer, liturgical worship, and eucharistic adoration. Founded in Elmira, New York in 1944 and relocated to central Illinois in 2014, the sisters moved to their current 38-acre home in Girard in 2022, where a purpose-built 21,000-square-foot monastery supports their hidden life of intercession for the Church. Daily Mass is offered every morning throughout the week, and the community in the Diocese of Springfield in Illinois welcomes women discerning a contemplative vocation through "Come and See" weekends.
