What this is
A local cell of the Coworkers of Christ
We are rooted in generous orthodoxy, the seven sacraments, new monastic practice, and a community-based way of living the Gospel together.
Jesus is our example. The Gospel is our Rule. Love is our Law.
Prayer, contemplation, study, and work belong together.
Local communities are the foundation of mercy and mission.
Field note
The first step may be as simple as a table, a cup, a prayer, and enough trust to begin discerning the Rule together.
