Charis Foundation for New Monasticism & Interspirituality (Charis Foundation) is dedicated to the emergence of a newly conceived Contemplative Life, drawing on all of the world’s great contemplative traditions.
Through a strategic array of programs and partnerships, we endeavor to serve a broad-based movement of interspiritually-oriented new monasticism, supporting an Embodied Spirituality that assists practitioners of all types (whether “spiritual-but-not-religious” or members of traditional religious paths) in their desire for a committed Contemplative Life that remains connected to the world and its needs through Sacred Activism.
