Benedictine Cell

SAINT BENEDICT's "little rule" has been used by monastic communities for 1500 years, and it remains a powerful tool to help us "put Christ at the center of life, to remain connected with people, and to follow God's will." (From the Preface to "St. Benedict's Toolbox" by Jane Tomaine) The Benedictine Cell at ASA meets monthly for prayer, dinner, and discussion about how to use the Rule of St. Benedict to shape and inform our lives, seeking a fuller life in Christ through daily prayer, regular worship and a balance of work, spiritual companionship, prayer and silence.  All are welcome!

For information on the next meeting of the Benedictine Cell, call Fr. Davenport at 202-347-8161.
