“A School for God's Service" | Rule of St. Benedict, Prologue, Vs. 45

Vision: To be a listening presence. 

Mission Statement: Creating communities steeped in Benedictine spirituality, to serve others through compassionate listening.

 
“It’s about the skills and the practices of spiritual life that prepares each one of us to be open to the other…to believe and trust that the hospitality of the Christian faith is to look for the Christ in the other person, and as we approach them to serve them and in humility provide ministry to them. Our prayer is that the stranger will receive us and look for the Christ in us.”
