WELCOME TO THE MONASTERY OF
ST. CLARE


Located in Travelers Rest, South Carolina, the Poor Clares have been serving the community of the Upstate and the Diocese of Charleston through contemplative prayer since 1955.

“The form of life of the Order of the Poor Sisters that Blessed Francis established is this:

to observe the holy Gospel
of Our Lord Jesus Christ,
by living in obedience
without any thing of one’s own
and in chastity.


-from the Rule of Saint Clare
