Abbot George Burke Returns to Christian Roots
Bloomington native George Burke, once immersed in Eastern and occult studies, returns to Christianity after years abroad. He leads a contemplative life as Abbot of an Oklahoma monastery and admires the LCC, which he says unites mysticism with traditional sacraments. Burda, ex-Catholic priest, supports a similar path, exploring mystical roots while advocating personal spiritual journeys.
