Little Brothers of Jesus of The Most Blessed Sacrament
We are a PIONEER COMMUNITY as well as a traditional community with traditional values, Monks wear traditional Habits. Without compromising the spirit of our vocation, we strive, in response to the call of our Holy Mother, the Catholic, Apostolic and Universal Church, Eastern and Western, to share the riches of our contemplative life with our neighbors. The Monastery is a refuge for any who need help Spiritually or, as we are able, Physically. In the Gospel of St. Matthew 12:28,29,30 we find the words of Jesus that we try to embrace regarding all: "COME TO ME, ALL YOU WHO ARE WEARY AND FIND LIFE BURDENSOME, AND I WILL REFRESH YOU. TAKE MY YOKE UPON YOUR SHOULDERS AND LEARN FROM ME, FOR I AM GENTLE AND HUMBLE OF HEART. YOUR SOULS WILL FIND REST, FOR MY YOKE IS EASY AND MY BURDEN LIGHT". This Monastery is the Mother House and the Spiritual and Academic training of the Monks will be provided here. As a Religious Community of men that will stem from various backgrounds, we shall strive to serve the Lord Jesus Christ and all people through varied facets of service. Of the many facets of service, prayer is our primary purpose and through the Perpetual Adoration of Our Lord in the Most Blessed Sacrament. It is our prayer life that sustains our every endeavor. IT IS A HOUSE OF PRAYER FOR ALL PEOPLE of any denomination. All are welcome here. Whenever we can assist our neighbores obtain their spiritual and/or physical needs, we shall do our utmost to be of service. We wish to be the hands and feet of Christ in service to all. In the future we will build and conduct a Retreat Center as well as a couple of Hospice Houses for the terminally ill. In the words of Fr. Charles de Foucauld: "Total abandonment of one's self to God, with a life centered in Prayer, Worship and Love towards Him and all His Childre: such is the life spirit of the Little Brothers of Jesus (of the Most Blessed Sacrament).
