“Love must act as light must shine and fire must burn.”
- Fr. James Huntington, OHC

We are a monastic community dedicated to prayer and prison ministry located in Oceano, California

  

 

 

  

           

                               

                                                

"When Jesus invites us to let him carry our burdens, he doesn’t demand that we make the choice, but he hopes that we will.  And his heart must sink when we choose another way.

     We are all called to be the instrument of peace, kindness, and love for one another. We know the truth that speaks to our hearts, and there can be no denying the still, soft voice of God within that encourages us to be in kinship with one another."

                                                                          Brother Dennis

"I was in prison and you visited me."

- Jesus -

"A God that would favor one one person, one nation, or one religion over another would be a very small God."

VOICES FROM INSIDE

"I can't wait to hear about your next book and read more of your spiritual essays. The one on UNITIVE CONSCIOUSNESS was awesome! You challenge and encourage me in continuing my meditation practice. I agree that the Kingdom of Heaven is within us."                                                        Donna A. CCWF
