- Name: Solitaries of St. Paul of Thebes
- About Me: Welcome to the virtual hermitage of the Solitaries of St. Paul of Thebes (SSPT)–a contemplative Christian community of monastic tertiaries. In the spirit of the New Monasticism movement, the SSPT provides a cooperative framework and community structure for contemplative monastic tertiaries practicing the solitary life while remaining in the world. Our mission is the attainment of Theosis through the practices of prayer, meditation, and dedicated study of the great mystics of the Church. We welcome men and women from a host of Christian traditions and perspectives. If you are presently engaged in a solitary practice and seek affiliation with like-minded individuals; or you would simply like to learn more about the SSPT way of life, please do not hesitate to reach out to us!
