2021 is the 30th anniversary of the launch of WCCM. In this time we have been growing as a global contemplative network, a spiritual family rooted in Christian faith. Committed to building a way of peace in our time of conflict, we serve unity among all to build a community of faith composed of people with many beliefs. Meditation for us is a way to open the common ground of humanity. So we work with other faiths and the secular world to develop the consciousness needed for a new, just way of living as a human family in harmony with our natural environment.

We live in the golden age of medicine. Breakthroughs, cures and life-expectancy have all flourished with medical science. The present Covid-19 pandemic shows the value and necessity of this dimension of medicine. It seems, to many medical practitioners and to patients, that we have gained so much but neglected something essential: our capacity for deep and transformative healing.
We offer a range of regular opportunities to share immediately with other meditators in silence, body work, worship and teaching
The international home of a monastery without walls, Bonnevaux is developing on the site of a 12th century Abbey energised by centuries of contemplative silence in the humane spirit of St Benedict.

Hospitality for guests, retreats and conferences share the peace of Bonnevaux with many so they can transmit it to others.
Our events offer many opportunities to learn to meditate and to integrate the practice into daily life, to deepen its fruits in the service of others, to share the experience of meditation inclusively, coming to self-knowledge in the discovery of our interconnectedness
