Farmington Hills Founded in 1906
Nuns
The Monastery of the Blessed Sacrament is a monastery of cloistered Dominican nuns located at 29575 Middlebelt Road, Farmington Hills, Michigan (United States), in the archdiocese of Detroit. The community was founded on April 1, 1906, when Mother Mary Emmanuel Noel and six nuns from Saint Dominic Monastery in Newark arrived in Detroit to establish Dominican contemplative life there.
The community's charism is centered on the perpetual adoration of Christ in the Eucharist, day and night. The day follows the rhythm of Mass, the Divine Office, study, and work. The nuns offer discernment retreats for young women and receive prayer intentions.
