On the eve of Epiphany (January 6), as a long-standing tradition, the sisters choose a Bean Queen or Epiphany Queen. Whichever sister finds the bean/medal in her piece of cake after supper is Queen-for-a-Year and can request special things (especially free evenings and free days) for her fellow sisters. This year Sr. Mary Philomena Tisinger, a former Mother Superior, received the crown.
The Monastery of the Visitation (Georgetown)
The Order of the Visitation of Holy Mary was founded in 1610 by Saint Francis de Sales and Saint Jane de Chantal. Our Monastery of Georgetown was established by Archbishop Leonard Neale in 1799.
