Threshold Mazagine
Threshold, published three times a year, is a magazine that helps our families, friends, and oblates stay in touch with us and what we are doing.

Benedictines Magazine
Benedictines magazine is a journal exploring issues of interest to monastic women and men. It contains articles on scripture, spirituality, community life, ministry, prayer and liturgy. Begun in 1946, it was originally titled The Benedictine Review. The founding editor was Sister Imogene Baker, renowned for her scholarship and leadership in the monastic world. For over fifty years, five editors have carried on the tradition of reflecting contemporary monastic perspectives and suggesting future possibilities.

Magistra
For ten years, the journal VOX BENEDICTINA brought its readers quality scholarship in the history of feminine spirituality. When it was no longer published, this spiritual and scholarly tradition was taken up by two of its former associate editors, Dr. Deborah Vess and Sister Judith Sutera, OSB, under the new title MAGISTRA. For five years, this daughter publication has continued to provide the same type of material to its family of readers.

Poetry
Several sisters have contributed poetry to share. Check back periodically since new poems are added occassionally. Poetry Page.

Community Bibliography
The Benedictine monastery in Atchison, Kansas, begun by Mother Evangelista Kremmeter and six other sisters, grew to establish many Catholic schools in the midwest. At Mount St. Scholastica Academy and College, thousands of young women received the education, preparation and training for their future lives.

Many pupils at the Academy and College in Atchison entered the novitiate and became Benedictine Sisters and later taught in the schools operated by the sisters. Some of these sisters were among the first women to receive master's degrees and doctorates in the United States. Sister Helen Sullivan, for example, (a native of Effingham, Kansas, in Atchison County) was honored at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C., for having obtained a Doctor of Philosophy degree in mathematics before 1940. In 1933 Sister Mary Theresa Brentano was awarded the first Doctor of Philosophy degree in English from the University of Kansas.

This is a listing of the sisters' writings that attests to the educational achievements of the Sisters of Mount St. Scholastica, Atchison, Kansas. Copies of some of these writings are in the archives at Mount St. Scholastica.
