Welcome to Origen Monastery, where spirituality intertwines with the modern world. Our mission is to support your journey towards an ascetic lifestyle, fostering a deeper connection with your inner self.
The Origenian Monastery (Schola Origenis) is a contemplative spiritual fellowship of the Ancient Apostolic Primitive Catholic Church dedicated to prayer, sacred liturgy, theological study, and union with God. Inspired by the primitive Church, Origen of Alexandria, and the Desert Fathers, we welcome clergy, oblates, and faithful seekers who desire to deepen their faith through the Divine Office, Holy Eucharist, contemplative silence, and disciplined Christian living. In Lumine Christi Ambulare — To Walk in the Light of Christ.

The Origenian Monastery sanctifies the day through the Divine Office, praying the Hours of Matins, Lauds, Prime, Terce, Sext, None, Vespers, and Compline. Rooted in the primitive Church, this rhythm of psalmody, Scripture, and silence draws the soul into continual communion with God.
This Order embraces the call to deeper contemplation: The pursuit of divine wisdom The transformation of the soul through grace The ascent toward union with God We affirm that the Christian life is not static, but dynamic a continual movement from glory to glory, as the soul is illumined by Christ.
The Holy Eucharist is the heart of our spiritual life. In this sacred Mystery, we receive the Body and Blood of Christ, are united with His divine life, and are strengthened by grace. Rooted in Apostolic tradition, the Eucharist nourishes the soul and draws us into deeper communion with God.
