What if I really want to become a monk but am currently tied to other commitments, eg. school?
We sponsor an off-campus affiliation program for men who wish to formalize their relationship with Saint Meinrad Archabbey but who are delayed in entering candidacy because of commitments to family, work or school. Affiliates maintain a relationship with the monastery through consistent visits. They practice their faith in a parish and begin to participate in monastic practices, such as praying lectio divina and the Liturgy of the Hours on their own. A monk is assigned to serve as their discernment guide.
