This series will explore through a variety of speakers some of the foundational Benedictine commitments—stability, deep listening, humility, hospitality, community, stewardship, justice, respect for persons and others. Each value is not merely an abstract principle but a lived discipline. Together, they form a coherent spiritual anthropology: a way of being human before God and with others.
Benedictine spirituality does not promise dramatic spiritual experiences. Instead, it calls us to faithful presence in the ordinary—showing up, listening well, practicing moderation, and honoring the sacredness of daily life. In a culture often marked by speed, individualism, and fragmentation, these values invite rootedness, attentiveness, and relational depth.
You may attend individual events ($20) or sign up for the whole series ($140) as your schedule allows. Offerings are available bi-monthly from 7:00-8:30pm starting May 28.
