Benedictine, an all male high school, is operated by the monks on the Abbey grounds. Mission Statement We are monks who wholeheartedly choose to seek and depend upon God the Father as disciples of Christ in the Holy Spirit.   We do this by living the Rule of Saint Benedict under the Abbot of Saint Andrew Abbey. We give witness to Christ's Kingdom by conversion and obedience in community life of praising God through liturgy, lectio, silence, work and fellowship. We share the word of God and our Benedictine presence by fostering an environment for others to encounter God.  We do this through such work and service that is supported by our community and compatible with its apostolates: hospitality, Catholic education, parish ministry and pastoral service to the Church.
