Spiritual Centre of Rome
Since November 2019, the Eternal City has its spiritual centre! This is called, in Italian, "casa di spiritualità" or "casa di esercizi", because it was so important for the Roman community that, from the moment the place opened, everyone felt at home, a casa, and that the Cenacolo was a welcoming home. Religious and lay people come for retreats or formation at the spiritual centre, whose proposals are mainly oriented towards the Spiritual Exercises and Ignatian spirituality. In Rome, there is also the Pilgrims' Centre - St. Teresa's House, a guest house linked to the Cenacolo, for travellers who come to the sources of the Church.

Far from being reserved for practising Christians alone, spiritual accompaniment is offered to all, because we all ask ourselves the question of the meaning of our lives and our actions. A regular, attentive and benevolent listening, in the light of the Gospel, can help us to speak for ourselves, to be unified and to unfold ourselves by making choices.
"Accompanying means helping someone to say to himself, it means sending the person back to what makes him unique".
Alone or in a group, in the dynamics of the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius or not, in silence... A retreat is a few hours or a few days to stop, to rediscover the flavour of the Gospel and the relationship with God.
As Cenacle sisters, we support the promotion of Christian life. We are involved in our local parish and also participate in the life of the diocese.
Come and meet us, share convivial moments with us or times of prayer.
The Cenacle Sisters are committed to accompanying young adults in spiritual direction, vocational guidance and participation in discernment groups.
Yes, praying can be learnt, just like one learns to read, play the violin or play rugby! And learning to pray is listening to the Word of God and recognising it present and at work in your life.
As Cenacle Sisters we support people in their life of faith in diverse ways. Sisters work with others in parishes, dioceses and spirituality centres to provide formation and training in spiritual direction, catechesis and theological education.
The path of faith is different for each person, as is the vocation to love, which is personal and unique. The Cenacle, through each of the proposals, is a space to make this journey.
The Sisters of the Cenacle are particularly attentive to helping young people to make choices in their lives and to discern their vocation: marriage, consecrated life, priesthood.
