Went on the tour with Sister Malinda. She was very informative and touched my soul. St. Rose Convent is beautiful and I would highly recommend it.

The nun who took us on a tour was very gracious. Not only did I receive a tour of the church, but was also shown a video. Then she also took us to see the archives which was phenomenal, and displayed the history of the church dating back many years.

It is only open to the public for limited hours (see the website for specific info). We very much enjoyed our visit.…
