Lodging in Nashville

  • Nashville is a mid-size city, with most activities fairly close to each other
  • Over many visits, we have found the area around Vanderbilt University to be safe, quiet, and easy to access
  • This is the area where the Cathedral of the Incarnation is located
  • Hotels in the Vanderbilt area can be found in the $90+ range per night on sites like Hotwire and Priceline

RSVP Deadline: Thursday, July 21

If you plan to come to Sister Gloria Christi’s First Profession of Vows, please RSVP no later than Thursday, July 21 so we can accommodate you. Anyone who does not RSVP by that date is still welcome to attend First Vows, but will not be able to attend the other meetups and activities.
