Monastic Life

As a monastic community, our life is lived in attentiveness to Gods will, humble service of the divine majesty, and pursuit of continual personal conversion.

 Our life in common icludes the full divine office in choir, periods of silence and solitary prayer, manual labor, and renouncement of personal possessions realized within the fraternal communion of the monastery.

 Our work becomes a prayer.
 Chanting the Divine Office.
