Welcome to New Monasticisms Ireland

This website provides information about a relatively new movement in Ireland.

This movement has its tentative roots in traditional Monasticism. It also has connections with a global expression that embraces many denominations. It could be said that it captures the ‘zeitgeist’ of this Age where much is in flux and a search for the authentic is paramount.

This opening page will tell you about the Next Event at NMI and other associated activities. Under About Us you will see the Guiding Principles of the New Monasticism Concept. You will also find reflective reading under Monasticisms Story, Monastic Prophets..

There is a facebook page connected with this site. You will find this on the Contact page. You will find many other useful links also on this page.
