BENEDICTINE COMMUNITY OF OUR LADY & SAINT JOHN (OSB)

Alton Abbey

 

 The monks follow the Rule with its balance of prayer, work and study, supported by the vows of stability, conversion of life and obedience.  A wide ministry of hospitality is offered, and visitors are welcome at the daily Mass and Divine Office.   The purpose built monastery is built around two cloister garths; the Abbey Church dates from the beginning of the twentieth century.  Set in extensive grounds, with contrast between areas that are cultivated and others that are a haven for wildlife, the Abbey is situated about four miles from Alton.
