This four-day gathering brings together educators, scholars, and Catholic thought leaders to explore the integral formation of students and teachers in mind, body, and spirit. Each day will focus on a distinct theme, beginning with Sound Bodies & Keen Minds, addressing topics like memory, mimesis, and freedom from technological distractions. Pure Hearts & Kindled Spirits follows, emphasizing integrity, common sense, and flourishing in Catholic education. The third day will introduce The Adeodatus-Cardinal Newman Society Eucharistic Project and The Adeodatus Catholic Culture Curriculum, centering on the Eucharist as the heart of Catholic education. The conference concludes with the Cornerstone Forum-Adeodatus “Tocqueville” Project, a deep dive into the cultural and political landscape of Catholic education in America.
In addition to daily Mass, attendees will have the opportunity to join the monks for many parts of the Liturgy of the Hours, beginning with Matins at 6 AM each day, as well as spend time in Adoration, available all day in the monastery’s beautiful chapel.
