Heartland Center for Spirituality invites you to “Sponsor a St. John’s Bible.”

Heartland Center is planning to offer informative and meditative workshops using the text and images of the St. John’s Bible. 

The Saint John’s Bible is a work of art and a work of theology. A team of artists coordinated by Donald Jackson in Wales and a team of scholars in Central Minnesota have brought together the ancient techniques of calligraphy and illumination with an ecumenical Christian approach to the Bible rooted in Benedictine spirituality. The result is a living document and a monumental achievement.

Back in the 1990s, Donald Jackson observed the monks of Saint John’s Abbey processing with their Book of the Gospels for Sunday Mass, and he recognized the importance of “their book.” To create a Bible that would capture the beauty and tradition of centuries of liturgy and carry it into the future—that is the vision that united a calligrapher in Wales with a group of Benedictine monks in Minnesota.

Sponsorship includes a certificate for two free workshops.

Sponsorship can be a wonderful way to create a lasting tribute to your loved ones!
