Chapter 2 pt. 2
The Rule of Benedict September 10
"The purpose of Benedictine spirituality is to gather equally committed adults for a journey through earthen darkness to the dazzling light that already flames in each of us, but in a hidden place left to each of us to find." -Joan Chittister OSB from The Rule of Benedict: Insight for the Ages
One benefit I perceive in the possibility of establishing a Benedictine Canon Community is a more tangible and extensive "equal commitment". A more robust community structure can enable a clearer inner sense of belonging, purpose, and support as we journey together.
