Colilia was a village in Dobrogea, which no longer exists today. It was founded in 1880 by German settlers and abandoned in 1940. The village was repopulated in 1945 with Romanians and Macedonians. The Roman Catholic Church, built by the Germans between 1910 and 1934, was occupied by the Romanian Orthodox Church. The Romanians and the Macedonians also left the village and since 1966 it has been deserted. During the communist years the village was demolished. The only building that could not be destroyed was the church. In time, thieves stole everything they could and shepherds turned the church into an animal shelter. In 2006 the Archdiocese of Tomis decided to establish a nunnery in this place. Mothers Rafaela and Dionisia saved the cold church and built what is today Colilia Monastery.
Colilia a fost un sat in Dobrogea, care astazi nu mai exista. A fost infiintat in 1880 de catre colonisti germani si parasit de acestia in 1940. Satul a fost repopulat in 1945 cu romani si macedoneni. Biserica Romano-Catolica, ridicata de germani intre 1910 si 1934, a fost ocupata de Biserica Ortodoxa Romana. Romanii si macedonenii au parasit si ei satul si din 1966 a ramas pustiu. In anii comunismului satul a fost demolat. Singura cladire care n-a putut fi distrusa a fost biserica. In timp, hotii au furat tot ce se putea din ea, iar ciobanii au transformat-o in adapost pentru animale. In 2006 Arhiepiscopia Tomisului a hotarat infiintarea in acest loc a unei manastiri de maici. Maicile Rafaela si Dionisia au salvat vechea bisrica si au construit ceea ce este astazi Manastirea Colilia.
