The Benedictine Network is the public extension of the White Robed Monks of St. Benedict. It is an independent, ecumenical, catholic community of men and women associated with the White Robed Monks of St. Benedict. People whom the Monks have served are automatically members of this Benedictine family of Contemporary Catholics.
All people are welcome to join together to let the world be a more compassionate place.
Members of Benedictine Network may be clerical, religious, or lay, Catholic or of any other belief or non-belief. Their common bond is the intention to let Earth be truly a more compassionate place for one and all. The Benedictine Network traces its history through the White Robed Monks of St. Benedict from both the Eastern and Western Catholic traditions. The Network's bishops flow in Apostolic Succession from Christ through various lines of the Catholic Church, East and West. Being Catholic, people of The Benedictine Network acknowledge that God, by any name, works within the human community.
