This is the website of the Global Basilian Family
A space where Basilian sisters, Basilian brothers, monasteries, parishes, or friends of Saint Basil from different parts of the world—youth and children alike—can each be protagonists in sharing Saint Basil’s legacy with one another and the world. This site builds bridges, unites us, and expands across the globe, carrying three Basilian values: the Scriptures, community, and hospitality. All for personal growth, for a more humane world, for the good of the Church, and for the glory of God.
Lic. Hna. Monica Jaciuk, OSBM
“Listening to God in the Sacred Scriptures is to encounter and be with the living Christ, who speaks to us through His Word, enlightening, giving life to, and guiding our lives”.
