Thank you for your interest in the Brothers and Sisters of Charity.
YOU MUST COMPLETE THE FORM BELOW TO BE CONTACTED.
The Brothers and Sisters of Charity, founded by John Michael Talbot in 1980, has an integrated monastic expression of celibate brothers and sisters, singles who can marry, and families; and a domestic expression of members who live in their own homes, mostly in the United States. Our two monasteries are in northwest Arkansas and Houston, TX. We are called as a monastic and domestic spiritual family into deep love relationships with and in Jesus Christ. The monastic members share common work and recreation areas while retaining appropriate separate cloistered areas for each expression. Our primary founder is Jesus, our primary rule is Scripture, and love is our primary law, guided by divine truth. Our most important work is to worship God daily as a community during the monastic Liturgy of the Hours. Secondly, we create a spiritual oasis of prayer in our monastic way of life that ministers to the hundreds of pilgrims who come to us.
At this time we are only seeking celibate vocations. Other expressions will open up in the future. If you meet the following prerequisites, please complete the form below and you will be contacted by our Vocations Director in the near future:
- Under 45 years old
- Single
- Out of debt
- In good health
Note: Candidates will be asked to provide letters of recommendation from your employer(s) and Pastor.
The following information serves as an initial point of contact. We will respond with further information by email and, if requested, by phone. Feel free to write to us with any questions you may have. We are happy to assist you in any way we can with the question of your vocation. Our intention is not to “recruit,” but to work with the Holy Spirit in the discernment of God’s will.
Please note that the information you provide will not be shared or sold to any third parties.
Further information will be forwarded to you upon request. Know that you will be in our prayers!
