WELCOME TO ST. LEO BENEDICTINE ABBEY!
We are located in Central Florida, a small community of monks that follows the Rule of Saint Benedict. We hope this website will provide the essential information that will move your curiosity about us and our life, and rouse you to investigate this monastic way of life further. In the same way that our visitors discover when they come and see us, you will find here that we are a simple community of monks who try to follow Christ and make our lives a holy gift for God. While a website is a somewhat impersonal way to convey information, I hope that as you read and view our web page you will be better informed and that the Holy Spirit will lead you to follow your desire to come and see us. Please do enjoy your visit to our website and don’t hesitate to call or e-mail us with comments or suggestions. Thank You for your visit, and may God Bless your spiritual journey.

March 5For thousands of years, anointing oneself with ashes has remained an outward sign of penance. Those who wish to receive them can join the Saint Leo Community on campus and at the Abbey Church. In the morning, at Saint Jude's Chapel (located on the main campus and visible from the roundabout), you may receive ashes beginning at 9:30. Then, at noon, the monks will celebrate mass and continue to distribute ashes in the Abbey church from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. All are welcome.Read More
