The Threshold – A Place of Prayer - is nurturing with its setting in the high plains and desert mountains of far West Texas. Its rural isolation offers dramatic views of God’s unspoiled creation; stillness, silence, and contemplation in the star filled night skies and sunny days.

The Threshold – A Place of Prayer - offers guests an alternative to the noise and pace of the society in which we find ourselves. Opportunity is afforded to each to allow for a personally meaningful experience in prayer. Whether you participate actively in the structure of the Benedictine rule and Liturgy of the Hours or you simply respect the quietness of the place and seek your own private time of reflection and healing, you are bound in love to this place and welcomed.

The Threshold – A Place of Prayer - extends an invitation to those seeking a deeper relationship with God. We welcome you as Christ, and invite you, where you are, to join us in our life of prayer.


 

Listen carefully, my child, to my instructions and attend to them with the ear of your heart. This is advice from one who loves you: welcome it and faithfully put it into practice.
~Saint Benedict of Nursia
