Benedictines worldwide are preparing for the 2029 Jubilee marking 1,500 years since the foundation of Montecassino. Inspired by Pope Leo XIV, Adam Simon, Coordinator of the 2029 Project, unfolds the Jubilee as a journey through places of hope: Benedictine monasteries.

Sant’Anselmo is working to establish a residential college for Benedictine women students, offering a stable community for study, prayer and formation. Prof. Fernando Rivas OSB explains why it featured in Abbot Primate Jeremias’ address to Pope Leo.

Dom Edmund Power OSB writes of an ecumenical vocation at the heart of Sant’Anselmo, shaped by Benedictine hospitality and openness to Christian traditions, and renewed by the call of Leo XIV to live unity beyond comfort zones, in the spirit of ut unum sint.

Sant’Anselmo commissioned renowned Roman atelier LAVS to create bespoke ceremonial vestments for the 125th Anniversary Mass of the Dedication of the Church, presided over by Pope Leo XIV.

Pope Leo XIV visited Sant’Anselmo for the church's 125th anniversary. In his homily, he called the abbey a "beating heart" for the Benedictine world and monasticism a "frontier reality". Abbot Primate Jeremias Schröder reflects on his words.
