SAINT JOHN’S UNIVERSITY

Fellowship in Prayer awarded a Sacred Journey grant in 2026 to Saint John’s University to continue supporting initiatives connecting student groups and other parts of the campus with the university’s Benedictine monastic community. Objectives include attaining a sense of monastic stability, stewardship, awareness of God in nature, engagement with daily prayerful rhythm of the monastery, interior silence, a sense of communal prayer, as well as a generative connection between prayer and action in the world.
