Presentation of the Virgin Mary Monastery is a monastic community for women in the Diocese of the Midwest in the Orthodox Church in America. It is located in Canton, Ohio.
The community was founded in September 1998 under the auspices of His Grace Bishop Job of Chicago and the Midwest (now Archbishop) as a response to the lay desire to have a monastic presence in northern Ohio. After building takes place, candidates will begin joining Mother Mary Ann, the initial monastic.
The community consists of women living the monastic tradition of a Christ-centered prayer life for the monastic members.
