Fr. Ambrose guides us through how to participate in "The Great Fast," our program for Lent.
We take Lent seriously to follow Christ, so we, too, go into the desert to fast. Join us in this ancient and holy practice.
This is part of The Great Fast, our program for Lent, 2024. You can sign up for email alerts, add your name to the list of our intentions for Lent, and find the rest of the program content here.
The Abbot's Circle is a first-of-its-kind virtual monastery—an evolving, curated library that offers an inside look at the artistic, cultural, intellectual, and spiritual work that the Norbertines of St. Michael’s Abbey carry out each day for the praise and honor of God.
Hidden in the stillness of southern California’s desert mountains, St. Michael’s Abbey goes about a timeless and supernatural mission: the common worship of God. This is a place for all to encounter the unfathomable beauty of God and to enter into the mystery of His unrelenting love.
Against a culture in ever desperate need for beauty, St. Michael’s Abbey stands as a refuge for reverent liturgy, inspiring art, and captivating sacred music and chant. Through our work, we are laying the foundation for the sanctification of our society and a renewal in our Church.
