We invite you to join Dr. Stefan Reynolds as he explores the tenets of the Irish Monastic tradition and of contemplative prayer to show how we can create a balance of self-discipline and inter-connection with others in our spiritual practice. One of the treasures of Irish monastic life is its witness to contemplation in the ordinary, by finding God by living a simple and balanced life and by being open to the needs of others in hospitality and service.

Additionally, Dr. Reynolds will discuss the applications of Benedictine wisdom to marriage and friendships. Attentiveness, the monastic tradition tells us, is the purest form of love. Through these works we discover dignity and purpose, and through relationships we discover that we are lovable and able to love.

This event will take place in the NHIOP Auditorium at Saint Anselm College. Hosted by the Center for Ethics in Society.

Local school counselors and college counselors are invited to campus to learn more about SAC through panel presentations and a campus tour.
