Calvary Abbey - New Brunswick, Canada
In a world given over to the frenetic pursuit of diversions and distractions, evasions and pretension, the Cistercian monastery tries to be an oasis of truth. Here, the soul longing to live learns, patiently through a whole lifetime, the secret way of the heart. The monks try to follow a trusty guide in the Rule of Saint Benedict.

Mepkin Abbey, S. Carolina
We live the Rule of Saint Benedict embodied in the Cistercian tradition, praising God in our prayer, our meditative reading of Scripture, our work, and our hospitality, obeying the call of the Holy Spirit to ceaseless prayer and sharing the sufferings of the present time until the Lord returns (Rm 8:18-23).

The Abbey of Gethsemani
Our monastery is a school of the Lord's service, a training ground of love. The monk expresses this love by his desire to share life together at the heart of the Church and to grow into Christ every day. Our mission is praise of God's mercy and proclamation of the Kingdom's approach.
