Monks of St Meinrad Pray, Share, and Receive Windfall
At St Meinrad Archabbey in Indiana, Benedictine monks uphold poverty, shared resources, and silent routines. Despite nearly 27 million dollars willed by two elderly benefactors, the community stays modest, with Abbot Lambert Reilly stressing money does not tempt them. The abbey supports 114 monks, a seminary of 82 priests in training, and a theology school of 100 students, all living in communal harmony and simple living.
