THE WISDOM OF MODERN MONASTICISM

In this workshop we will reflect together on several different stands of modern Benedictine spirituality. These will include: liturgical contemplation, exemplified by Abbot Prosper Gueranger and the Solsmes Congregation; and the revival of Benedictine missionary evangelization, begun by Abbot Boniface Wimmer and the American Cassinese Congregations and continued by Belgian Abbot Theodore Neve, Abbot Founder of Valyermo.
