Get Started with Practices

These practices are a simple invitation to experience aspects of a monastic life. To meet with God through the contemplative, meditative practices, and to experience a new pathway of spiritual growth.

Divine Office

Try praying at least one liturgical prayer a day for a few weeks. Learn more about the Divine Office.

Commitment

Our Commitment is rooted in over 1000 years of monastic wisdom. Dive into what it looks like to implement it into your daily life.

Spiritual Practices

Add a new spiritual practice to your daily rhythm (like a Daily Examen or Lectio Divina).

Moments

These times of meeting together are focused on a singular expression, practice, or conversation. The hope is that these times can encourage, equip, and bless those who come.

Recent Writing

Urban Monastics is in process of translating our own breviary to provide for the community. The goal is to have texts translated from the original sources that are ecumenical and have inclusive language for all people. It is our goal to publish reflections on each passage that is translated. You can learn more about our approach here.
