Bethany House of Prayer

“The House was filled with the Fragrance of the oil

John 12:3

Renewal of women’s religious life begins at home.

Our Vision

The Bethany House of Prayer is a home for the movement of Friends of the Bridegroom.

We serve the local Church in Milwaukee by creating a place to encounter the witness of the consecrated Bride and offer our home as a space of rest and renewal for consecrated women.

Rest and Renewal

The Bethany House is first of all a place of prayer. The residents live in a rhythm of prayer that creates a space of peace. We offer hospitality in our home to religious women seeking a time of rest and renewal.

Encounter

The Bethany House provides space for the local Church to be renewed in their love for the Bride through hosting events with visiting religious. These encounters are a force of renewal for the whole Archdiocese.

“Come away by yourselves…and rest for awhile. ”

-Mark 6:31
