The White Robed Monks of St. Benedict, based in Burlingame, CA, are a Contemporary Catholic community that embraces love and compassion over religious beliefs and fear. They offer baptism, confirmation, quinceañera, first communion, holy orders, marriage, monastic, funeral, and house blessing services, with a focus on providing the Word and Sacraments to all who request them, following the example of Jesus' unconditional acceptance. As an independent Catholic jurisdiction in the tradition of the Old Catholic Church, their clergy come from various Catholic backgrounds, and their mission is to create a more compassionate world filled with child-like wonder, peace, and joy.
The White Robed Monks of St. Benedict maintain simplicity and reject institutionalization, emphasizing a spiritual experience rooted in Catholic spirituality rather than rigid religious structures. They welcome people of all backgrounds and outlooks, aiming to educate about the nondual Mind of A Child, enabling individuals to experience the Kingdom of God in the present moment. With a commitment to hospitality and a vision of a more loving and harmonious society, the Monks strive to bring about a sense of ease, happiness, and well-being for all beings.
