Omaha has a long history of Supporting the Poor Clare's. We are their first home in North America. The first Poor Clare Foundation in America began to be realized. Mother Mary Magdalen Bentivoglio and her sister, Mother Constance Bentivoglio, left their home land for the United States on the feast of St. Clare, 1875 After enduring many trials and rejections in several localities they received a friendly welcome from Bishop James O'Connor of Omaha. Mother Mary Magdalen and two novices arrived to Omaha on August 15, 1878. A sturdy brick convent was completed and dedicated on June 24, 1881, with the title Monastery of St. Clare of St. Joseph.A new monastery was erected and dedicated on September 15, 1904. In early 1970 we then bought and moved into the Saint Bernard Parish Convent on June 2, 1971. The Present Monastery of St. Clare is located at 3626 North 65th Avenue, Omaha.
