Against temptation, we must turn again and again to the holy face of Christ and to his Sacred Heart.
On Fridays of Lent, we encourage you to attend the Stations of the Cross.
In recent years, the focus of Lent has drifted from the ancient and worthy task of daily fasting. This Lent offers us an opportunity to reclaim this tradition.
Rediscover the essence of Lent and draw closer to Christ through a transformative 40-day fast.

The Abbot's Circle is a first-of-its-kind virtual monastery—an evolving, curated library that offers an inside look at the artistic, cultural, intellectual, and spiritual work that the Norbertines of St. Michael’s Abbey carry out each day for the praise and honor of God.
Hidden in the stillness of southern California’s desert mountains, St. Michael’s Abbey goes about a timeless and supernatural mission: the common worship of God. This is a place for all to encounter the unfathomable beauty of God and to enter into the mystery of His unrelenting love.
Against a culture in ever desperate need for beauty, St. Michael’s Abbey stands as a refuge for reverent liturgy, inspiring art, and captivating sacred music and chant. Through our work, we are laying the foundation for the sanctification of our society and a renewal in our Church.
