THE Monastery of Our Lady of the Cenacle (Silverstream Priory) is a community of men dedicated to the traditional monastic life according to the Rule of Saint Benedict, and to intercession for the sanctification of priests, in adoration and reparation before the Eucharistic Face of Christ.
We were established during the Year of the Priest (2009-2010) in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Tulsa, Oklahoma, by His Excellency, the Most Reverend Edward J. Slattery.
By the grace of God, we have been invited by His Lordship, the Most Reverend Michael Smith, Bishop of Meath, to move our fledgling community to County Meath, Ireland. Thanks be to God, as of February 29, we have arrived in Ireland and we are currently moving into our new property.
You can read more about our “monastic mission to Ireland” in the first issue of our newsletter.
Our founder and prior is the Very Reverend Dom Mark Daniel Kirby. He may be contacted here. Father Prior’s weblog, Vultus Christi, can be found here.
We welcome vocation inquiries, as well as your prayers and donations for the support of our monastic life and mission of adoration, reparation and intercession for priests.
