A contemplative fellowship of spiritual pilgrims in pursuit of the inner flowering of Wisdom. The heart of our charism is the pursuit of théōsis (‘deification’) through the deep inner work of the mystical life of theourgía, as inherited from the ancient Alexandrian school of theology, along with its diverse philosophical and spiritual antecedents. We strive for holistic, life-giving transformation of ourselves and the world around us in the context of a fresh, deep-rooted, loving, and expansive expression of the contemplative life, realistically integrated into our twenty-first century context without compromising the depth or demands of our spiritual vocations. We are devoted to continual meditation, study, and the inner arts of spiritual development, toward the ultimate unfoldment of the Mystic Rose within: the summum bonum of all human endeavor.
