Monastic Formators’ Program

The Monastic Formators’ Program, established at the instigation of the 2002 Congress of Abbots, provides an opportunity for monastic men and women from all over the world to have the experience of being instructed by some of the most important monastic teachers of our time. Based in Rome and Assisi, it also affords an unparalleled opportunity to visit sites and shrines intimately connected with the history of the Church and the growth of the monastic tradition.

The program is designed to meet the needs of those working in the field of monastic formation or are preparing to do so in the future. So far, there have been more than 400 participants from every continent and diverse monastic traditions.
