The liturgy is the fountain from which our strength flows.  Constitutions, Chapter III

Prayer

Constitutions, Chapter III Excerpts

God has graced us through Jesus Christ with his Holy Spirit, whose love has been poured out in our hearts.  We respond through a life of praise and thanksgiving.  the Benedictine way of life helps us come to a keen awareness of God's presence and to an attitude of unceasing prayer. 

In the Eucharist, which is the center of our liturgical life, we encounter the Risen Lord in a special way through word and sacrament.  Here, above all, our community is ever renewed and united.

The Opus Dei, our common divine praise in the Liturgy of the Hours, for which we gather several times a day, bears witness to the priority of rendering glory to God. 

Lectio Divina -- Scripture reading, spiritual reading and interior prayer -- is essential for our life.  Personal dialog with God is continued throughout the day.
