The charism of our monastic Family can be summed up as follows:
That God in his three Persons
be contemplated, adored and celebrated,
in Jesus, who died for love
and rose from the dead,
at the heart of the Church,
according to the Gospel,
at the school of the Virgin Mary
elevated in body and soul
in the glory of the Father, the Son
and the Holy Spirit,
in a life of solitude and communion
inherited from the monastic tradition
of East and West,
under the spiritual paternity of Saint Bruno,
according to our Constitutions
and the tradition of our monastic Family
of Bethlehem, of the Assumption
of the Virgin Mary, and of Saint Bruno.
