“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
"The intertwining cycle of the natural and spiritual worlds are woven together by prayer, meditation and contemplative practice in ways that allows me to engage with the universal energy of Love and Life-Force that pulses throughout the universe and all creation.
So, it is autumn with leaves falling in their own cycle of life. Soon it will be winter, followed once again by the blossoming of spring, and summer. And so it goes. The cycle of life is an invitation to embrace the continual unfolding of the mystery and wonder of it all, both around us in the natural world and within us in the interiority of our being."
Brother Dennis

"I was in prison and you visited me."

"In 2004 I went to a monastery in Massachusetts and fell in love with the life of monastics. I found there a pattern of living that focused on loving God first above all else. Soon after I sold all my belongings and moved to California."
