Affiliates of Saint Louis Abbey

Are you interested in deepening your interior life?

Who are the Saint Louis Abbey Affiliates?

Affiliates of the Saint Louis Abbey include Priory alumni, parents, and friends of the Abbey and anyone committed to helping the Abbey succeed through common prayer. There are currently more than 150 Affiliate members. We would love to add you to that number! As an Abbey affiliate you will have the opportunity to join in prayer vicariously with both the monks and the other affiliates around the world from within your own home. Additionally, after joining you will receive complementary copies of the Saint Benedict's Prayer Book, The Rule of Saint Benedict, as well as a certificate of your membership.

Prayer

The most important thing an Affiliate can do is pray! Pray for the monks, for the other Affiliates, and for their families. And Know that we are praying for you as well.

Helping Hand

Support

As an Abbey Affiliate we will do whatever we can to support you in your interior life. We will start by sending you a copy of The Rule of Saint Benedict, weekly prayers, and our newsletter, but we are also here for any other needs you have.

Community

Are you searching to be part of a community of prayer, but are too busy with work, family and other commitments? As an Affiliate, you can pray short daily prayers in communion with the monks of Saint Louis Abbey, and other Affiliates from within your own home!

“As St Louis Priory alumni, we are reminded of being members of “ the Priory Family “. Sharing community, at a multitude of events, with the Monks, fellow alumni, their spouses and close friends of the Abbey, has truly enriched our lives.
That said, my Spiritual life has been further blessed by the gift of being an Abbey Affiliate. The encouragement and guidance of daily readings from St. Benedict’s Prayer Book have deepened my faith, and strengthened that feeling of community with my fellow Abbey Affiliates. I encourage my brother Alumni to prayerfully consider this opportunity.

-Chris Kerckhoff (alum and parent)

"When I became an Affiliate I was presented a key that unlocked the door to a richer spiritual relationship with God through the monastic community.  I always knew this door existed, but on my own it remained hidden. Once opened, the grace of God’s love continues to pour forth."

- Nate and Annie Andersen
