The Chiara Center is a place of healing, joy, and serenity. The sisters and staff are all exceptionally hospitable. It's beautiful inside and out. We enjoyed our first Nativity Festival here this year and is was marvelous! Thank you for giving us such a incredible treasure in Springfield, IL

Brian Blasko was the BEST tour guide. He was both knowledgeable & entertaining. After a few visits to this gorgeous escape, I was fascinated to finally hear some of the back story of the facility. I look forward to my next visit even if it's just for a short stroll. Thank you for teaching us more about the sisters & their important work through history.

Coming to Chiara is always a welcoming experience. The sisters and staff are so hospitable. The grounds are beautiful. The guest rooms are comfortable. The food is good as well as healthy. There are many places for prayerful reflection both inside and outside. I highly recommend Chiara to friends as a great place for private reflection or for retreats.
