Benedictine Value | Hospitality

Saint John's School of Theology·Seminary in Collegeville, Minnesota is part of a 1,500-year Benedictine Catholic tradition.

This tradition is guided by values distilled from the Rule of St. Benedict, written in the sixth century by St. Benedict, the founder of the Benedictine monastic order.

These values give us a set of practices for a life modeled on Jesus. They provide insight and support to students; faculty and staff; supporters; and alumni in building strong and caring family, civic and church communities, wherever life takes them.

Hospitality

To offer warmth, acceptance, and joy in welcoming others. "Let all...be received as Christ." Rule of Benedict 53.1
