Welcome to our website
Whether you are looking for information or inspiration we hope your visit proves worthwhile today.
Our Community
Here you will find information on St Benedict and his Rule, on our Patron Saints, and also a short history of the community. We explain what a vocation is, what the monastic vows mean, and what an Oblate is. You can also find reflections by the brethren on the Rule of St Benedict.
Our Work
We work in education and on parishes. We have a monastery far away in Zimbabwe and provide hospitality to visitors at home. We have orchards and a shop and serve each other in many other ways.
Our Prayer
Monks pray the Divine Office together, but also use the Scriptures in an ancient, prayerful way called Lectio Divina. Here you can also find copies of homilies and other information about how monks pray.
