Our Monastery
Our monastery was found in 1958. Our beginnings are rooted in Benedictine monastic tradition which is nearly fifteen hundred years old which is still fresh and alive to this day. The history of St. Benedict and the Benedictine Order is beyond the scope of our humble web site but the reader is encouraged to visit our library or speak to a monk or just pray with us to learn more about us than we can reveal here
