The Convent of St. Mary Magdalene is a women's monastery in the Western Rite of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia (ROCOR), located in Pass Christian, Mississippi.
With the blessing of Metropolitan Hilarion, the convent was formed in January 2017, under the spiritual direction of Hieromonk Ezekiel (Vieages). In 2021 by the grace of Metropolitan Hilarion, the convent was moved to Mississippi to be established there and was incorporated there as a nonprofit. In 2022, we received a 24-acre piece of property. A house in need of significant repairs is included on the property, and we need to do site planning as well as architectural planning for adding to the house. |
