Sons of Subiaco
-
For parents, educating their children is a gift and a responsibility. Part of the responsibility is researching and choosing an institution that follows the morals, academics standards, and whole-person development that bring a child to adulthood in partnership with the parents. Because of the Benedictine traditions of Subiaco Academy, we feel strongly that we meet and in many cases exceed the desires for parents seeking a quality education for their sons. Additionally, we work diligently to improve the funding of financial assistance we can offer to our families with such need.A major component of this capital campaign includes a focused effort to increase the Tuition Assistance Endowment to become a more sustainable source for providing that necessary support to our families. Because of the generosity of our early supporters in the effort, we are on the way to reaching the goal of $2 million with current gifts and pledges of over $450,000.00 in this area. That generosity has a trickle-down effect allowing Subiaco Academy to assist families in their discernment to enroll their sons here. In other words, the treasures given to us are passed directly to the future “Sons of Subiaco.” And what a difference that is making! We invite you to join this incredible journey for young men by committing your support to this effort. Please contact us at any of the ways listed below to discuss how you can become a part of making that difference. We look forward to speaking with you!

Ramping Up Our Hospitality

Rule of St. Benedict; Chapter 53: The Reception of Guests
1 All guests who present themselves are to be welcomed as Christ, for he himself will say: I was a stranger and you welcomed me (Matt 25:35). 2 Proper honor must be shown to all, especially to those who share our faith (Gal 6:10) and to pilgrims.
In the Benedictine tradition, the monks of Subiaco Abbey place a high priority on receiving all guests as Christ, creating a convenient, restful, and spiritual place in which to welcome them.

8 After the guests have been received, they should be invited to pray; then the superior or an appointed brother will sit with them.
A wheelchair-accessible entrance into the church and choir stalls from our guest house and retreat center will allow for unity in prayer and convenient access to the guest dining room. Building on the existing ramp-style sidewalk that extends from the front of the Coury House to the sidewalk that runs along the northern back entrance to the monastery, we have placed an inclining concrete section attached to a steel structure that elevates to a newly installed automated door. Fabricated handrails are being placed along the entire length of the ramp and inside the door, a safety gate closes off the existing staircase upon entrance to prevent falls or mishaps. Outside the ramp, concrete blocks faced with natural stone matching the exterior of the building are placed around the steel frame and a concrete slab with flagstone overlay and benches will provide a nice area for meditation or gathering to socialize.

Coury House

Building on our pledge to welcome all guests as Christ, many improvements are being conducted for the comfort of our guests who visit the Coury House.
The new HVAC equipment, including wiring, is being installed throughout the building. A contractor continues cutting holes through the stone walls for new individual room units to be installed. With a variable schedule of events now possible as we are opening our facilities once again following COVID, work is being done in stages to minimize the impact for guests. The bookstore and upper conference room require larger, more complex systems, and installation there should take 2-3 weeks. Finally, the old chiller will be removed and a new designated outside air system (D.O.A.S) will be set in its place. This unit will supply the required amount of conditioned outside air to all levels of the building by way of a new duct system, allowing for cleaner air and improved comfort.
