Let them prefer nothing whatever to Christ.
We are monks who wholeheartedly choose to seek and depend on God the Father as disciples of Christ in the Holy Spirit. We do this by living the Rule of St. Benedict under the Abbot of St. Andrew Svorad Abbey.
We give witness to Christ Kingdom by conversion and obedience in the community life of praising God through liturgy, Lectio, silence, work and fellowship.
We share the Word of God and our Benedictine presence by fostering an environment for others to encounter God. We do this through such work and service that is supported by our community and compatible with its apostolates: hospitality, Catholic education, parish ministry and pastoral service to the church.
"Let them prefer nothing whatever to the love of Christ.
And may He bring us all together to everlasting life!"
~ Rule of Benedict, Ch. 72
