Summer Break

Join us each week for a 30 minute practice of meditation and contemplative prayer led by our vowed New Monastic members. Click below for more info and details on how to join us online.

Monasticism has always been a response to the deep human longing for God. From the desert fathers and mothers of Egypt and Palestine to the monasteries of Europe, it has shaped lives of prayer, simplicity, and service for centuries. But this course isn’t about the monasticism of the past—it’s about new expressions of monasticism emerging today, rooted in the same longing but responding to the unique challenges and possibilities of our time.

Join our Franciscan Year Novices as we meditate on works of art, using the eyes of our heart to discover God’s revelation in beauty. We will share our experience of the artwork with mutual respect and a desire for holy conversation.
