Unusual Benedictine mix at Pecos Monastery
In Pecos New Mexico a mixed gender Benedictine community blends ancient liturgy with Jungian psychology and charismatic renewal. Abbot David Gernets leads a double monastery where husbands and wives study pray and work together challenging traditional Catholic positions on celibacy and women in the church. They host retreats for Catholics and Protestants drawing visitors and new members while exploring healing through prayer and depth psychology.

The measure has transformed approvals, with Planning Commission handling 71 new reviews and many projects redirected or canceled, while residents praise empowerment and developers warn of rising costs and job shifts.
