Benedictine

Benedictine is a Catholic, faith-based, non-profit organization dedicated to providing comprehensive senior care services across the upper Midwest. Founded by the Benedictine Sisters of St. Scholastica Monastery in Duluth, Minnesota, the mission advances the life-enhancing senior care ministry of the Sisters.

They create inclusive communities that support individuals to live well and with purpose, with special concern for the underserved. Guided by the Rule of Saint Benedict, the organization upholds four core values: Hospitality, Stewardship, Respect, and Justice.
