On Inhabiting Monastic Heritage: Monastery "Nieuw Sion" in the Netherlands as Material Burden and Spiritual Opportunity
For decades, the Catholic monastic tradition has been defined by demographic decline and the closure of monasteries. And yet, new religious groups have emerged that have cultivated their own take on the monastic tradition, while old monasteries have become treasured heritage objects. In recent years, these new religious groups have started to acquire and inhabit old monasteries. It follows that simultaneous re-religionization and heritagization i…

Liturgical theology is an attempt to bridge that gap between practice and reflection. The voice of practitioners as part of theologica…
Monastic Form-of-Life Out of Place: Ritual Practices among Benedictine Oblates

Monastic stability became the leading principle of their life and death, and opened the space to develop the virtue of compassion directed to all groups present in their surroundings, radically.…

The imams of the local mosques are performing death rites as part of their professional duties but there is a growing number of ‘volunteers’ involved.
