Interested in knowing more about the spirituality of St. Benedict?
In addition to his rule for the monastic way of life, St. Benedict emphasized love of neighbor, justice and peace, and humility, making him truly a saint for our times. Gather with us to learn more about the Benedictine way of life, their prayer style, and their work in the community, and come away with tools that will strengthen your own spirituality and commitment to finding ways to serve others.
