THE ORDER OF THE COMMON LIFE IS A MISSIONAL MONASTIC ORDER
FOR THE 21ST CENTURY.
We believe that the contemplative and charismatic are meant to be brought together,
that we can grow in our awareness of God’s invitation to each of us,
and that the future of monasticism is missional.
THE CONSTRAINTS OF THE SPIRITUAL LIFE, PRACTICED IN COMMUNITY, ARE WHAT SET US FREE.
CONSTRAINT IS THE PRACTICE OF LEARNING TO PAY DEEPER ATTENTION TO THE THINGS IN OUR INNER WORLD THAT PREVENT US FROM PROGRESSING IN THE SCHOOL OF LOVE.
