How are Catholic Altar Breads made?

The Cistercian nuns at Santa Rita Abbey in Sonoita, Arizona, are a Roman Catholic order of contemplative, cloistered nuns. These religious women take vows of stability, poverty, chastity, and obedience. Their days are a balance of prayer and work. The Cistercian nuns labor to produce the unleavened bread that becomes the Body of Christ, the Eucharist.
