The Jeremiah Project: New Monasticism in Toronto


One of the most interesting (to me, at least) movements of the Spirit in Toronto Anglican circles is happening around The Jeremiah Project. This is a group of folks interesting in forming a New Monastic (aka "Neo-Monastic") in downtown Toronto. They are deeply committed to monastic principles and also to the health of the city. They are basing themselves at St. Anne's, Gladstone, a parish that has experienced decline for many years. Hopefully the Jeremiah Project will bring new life and mission.

It will be very exciting to see what shape this new community will take!
