This video describes the way of life at St. Procopius Abbey, a Benedictine monastery of men in Lisle, IL. For more information about the abbey see the abbey's website: www.procopius.org
I also have never seen an Abbot this young. Since they are chosen by the community, they will be blesssd for what he will be able to bring to them and lead them in the future.
Seeking God while not promoting Christianity and the doctrines of the Church/Catholicism? There is a difference between the clergy and the laity. Vocations/The Sacrament of Holy Orders states that.
@@AustinOSB Absolutely.You can tell immediately a religious community’s leanings by the way mass is offered.The vestments worn…..no Latin is used by monks or nuns in the Divine Office.For example check out some videos of the Nashville Dominicans or Mother Angelica’s Poor Clares and see mass being offered in their convents.The difference is clear.Many monastic communities are still stuck in 1968 and it shows.
@@ryanscottlogan8459 Thanks for the reply. It gives me a better idea of what you mean by the term "liberal." I'm not sure that is the best term to describe us, though. Yes, there are elements in our life that reflect the 60s and 70s, such as the architecture of the abbey and some of our vestments. The abbey was completed in 1970 and we still have some vestments from decades ago. But for many the term "liberal" would mean dissenting from Church teaching rather than being orthodox. Yet we seek to be faithful to Church teaching. Also, there are traditional elements in our way of life, such as using the modes of Gregorian Chant, even if with English and with some simplifications, table reading during supper, periods of silence, and lectio divina. As for Latin, we do not use it much in our Divine Office and Mass, but we do at times.

Beautifully done. This is so consistent with what I know of the Benedictines who taught me at the college across the street.
Wow. That's the youngest abbot i've seen in my life. God bless! +
Yes that's right
My exact thoughts.
Very intelligent young man.
Beautiful monastery.
Thank you, Fr. Juan.

Love the concept .

Not to compare but there is a group of Benedictine Monks/Brothers in Silver City, NM. If you are ever in that area, you should think about a visit.
I see that it is a very progressive monastery. I wonder if latin is still used there.
No more like rainbow vestments and Kum Bay Ya 😂😂😂☺️😂😂

Thank you@@allenmacneel1572 Have a blessed Easter season!
