In the late 1800's the Benedictine Monks of St, Vincent Abbey in Pennsylvania and St. Benedict Abbey in Atchison Kansas came to Colorado.
These are the same monks who built St. Benedict Church in 1900 in Florence Colorado.
From that time forward the Parish has always adopted the Benedictine values of:
* Love of Christ and neighbor
* Prayer
* Obedience
* Discipline
*Humility
* Stewardship
* Hospitality
*Community
* Justice and Peace
As we try to live out these values all are Welcome!
