September has seen much preparatory work done, as the workers ground down the concrete floor to make it perfectly smooth before applying a waterproof sealant to protect the Church floor and the crypt below once the roof is removed. From September 14-18, the monks had to take refuge in the Chapter room for the Divine Office and Mass due to the toxic fumes of the sealant. Scaffolding is now in place both inside and outside the Church to continue work.

On the South side of the monastery, the monks have been helping to prepare the excavation of the refectory wing by removing the temporary cloister buildings and uncovering and relocating power and water lines. Learn more Make a Donation

Together with the whole Church in the United States, we celebrate today the beatification of Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen.

We are pleased to share that on August 13th, the monks of Clear Creek Abbey officially broke ground on the next phase of construction to complete the Abbatial Church and Monastic Refectory.

Mr. Colton Roberts (foreman), Mr. William Heyer (architect), and Father Abbot.

Driven by a steady stream of monastic vocations and the growth of the community, this new phase of construction seeks to complete the master architectural plan envisioned by the late Thomas Gordon Smith and completed by William Heyer.
