Welcome to the Franciscan Monastery of the Holy Land in America

***The Monastery church remains closed per the health order of the mayor of the District of Columbia.  There will be no Masses or Confessions until further notice.  Our gardens are open from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. daily.  Visitors may lawfully visit, but safe, social distancing is expected. Out of an abundance of caution for the friars and the public, the Monastery will not be holding any public tours of the church, catacombs or the gardens through August 31, 2020.***
