What is a Benedictine Day of Prayer?
It’s a day to pray a time and space set apart for spiritual renewal. Who may participate? We welcome men and women of all faiths who want to come and pray with us. Participants are asked to bring their Bibles. What does it cost? Program fee for the Day of Prayer is $50 and includes breakfast, lunch, refreshment breaks, program, facilities and materials. Pay in advance or on the day of the program. Make checks payable to “Spiritual Life Program.” Gift certificates are available. If you need financial help to participate in the Benedictine Day of Prayer, please inquire about sponsorship assistance when you register. What happens on this “Day?” At 6:45 a.m. a monk will meet you in the back of the abbey church and welcome you to Morning Prayer with the monastic community. Just park near the church and come inside. After breakfast and check-in, one of the monks gives a spiritual conference, followed by lectio divina, a practice dear to the heart of Saint Benedict. Substantial time is devote
