The Stations of The Cross
Retreatants and other guests are welcome to walk the one mile circular, dirt road as it winds around one edge of the monastery mesa. The fourteen stations of the cross are situated along the trail and benches are located near each station for people to sit, contemplate or just view the ocean and the scenery. The prayer walk begins and ends near the church at the edge of the lower parking lot.
Our monastery was found in 1958. Our beginnings are rooted in Benedictine monastic tradition which is nearly fifteen hundred years old which is still fresh and alive to this day. The history of St. Benedict and the Benedictine Order is beyond the scope of our humble web site but the reader is encouraged to visit our library or speak to a monk or just pray with us to learn more about us than we can reveal here.

Like most libraries, the abbey library is a repository for books and periodicals as well as many other different collections. Our library also has audio cassettes, CDs, DVDs, and VHS films, phonograph records, foreign and domestic postage stamp albums, rocks, sea shells, some photography/artwork, picture and news files. Since this is a monastic library, our schedule follows the regular work-prayer schedule for all the monks.
