In the first week of July, Fr. Bruno Robeck OCist, Father Abbot of Helfta, and M. Bernadette Pruß OSB, the co-visitator, carried out the visitation in the monastery of St. Marien of Helfta. Last year, several sisters were out of the house for convalescence or to clarify questions about their own vocation. The small convent was able to cope with the absences with the help of sisters from other monasteries. Therefore, after intensive consultations, it was decided that the other part of the community would soon take a break without breaking off contact with its mother house. In addition, the term of office of Sr. M. Katharina as Prioress Administrator was extended by two more years.
