This four-day gathering brings together educators, scholars, and Catholic thought leaders to explore the integral formation of students and teachers in mind, body, and spirit. Each day will focus on a distinct theme, beginning with Sound Bodies & Keen Minds, addressing topics like memory, mimesis, and freedom from technological tyranny. Pure Hearts & Kindled Spirits follows, emphasizing integrity, common sense, and flourishing in Catholic education. The third day will introduce the Adeodatus-Cardinal Newman Society Eucharistic Project and a Catholic Culture Curriculum, centering on the Eucharist as the heart of Catholic education. The conference concludes with the Cornerstone Forum-Adeodatus “Tocqueville” Project, a deep dive into Catholic education's cultural and political landscape in America.
In addition to daily Mass, participants are welcome to join the monks for various prayers in the Liturgy of the Hours, starting with Matins at 6 AM. Belmont’s beautiful Adoration chapel will also be open throughout the day. All meals are included in the registration price, and we have secured discounted room blocks at two nearby Hilton hotels.Tuesday, April 15, 2025
