Saint John’s Abbey welcomes baptized and confirmed Roman Catholic men, ages 18-43, who desire to pray every day, who want to live in community, who want to deepen their love of Sacred Scriptures, who are no strangers to hard work, and who love learning.  We seek men with initiative, and we require that they be of sound physical and emotional health.


If you sense that God is inviting you to consider monastic life, we encourage you to contact us.

Requirements for vocation visitors:

  • Baptized and confirmed Roman Catholic men
