Why Monks Matter

Page 2

Br. James Koester, SSJE was born in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. Br. James has served in a wide range of leadership posts and currently serves as the community’s Superior. One of the most dinstinctive features of monasticism is that it is a life lived in community. We wanted to reflect this truth by making this discussion of monastic life into a conversation. Look for Br. Jim’s comments in blue throughout Br. James’ text. Br. Jim Woodrum, SSJE serves the community as the Director of Vocations. He’s launched a campaign to help others learn more about monastic vocations, called “Catch the Life.” Visit: catchthelife.org
