About ten minutes drive from the town of Martin in Floyd County, you find a gravel road on a mountainside that leads to The Dwelling Place Monastery.
The road winds its way through dense woods past a retreat center, several guest cottages, and the two-story home of the Mt. Tabor Benedictines.
The Benedictines are a religious order of men and women who live a communal life of prayer, work, and community outreach. Currently, seven Benedictine sisters live on the 24-acre monastery property in Floyd County.
