Ora et labora.… “Pray and work.”
This is the motto of the Rule of St. Benedict, written in 516 by the famous founder of Western monasticism. “Benedict of Nursia found the world, physical and social, in ruins,” observed St. John Henry Newman, “and his mission was to restore it… quietly, patiently, gradually.”
We at The Imaginative Conservative also seek to revive the glory of Christendom. The financial support of our readers makes it possible for us to share our hope-filled dedication to the true, the good, and the beautiful. And so we would add to Benedict’s Rule the idea of giving, to further the work of restoring a world in ruins: “Pray, work, give.”
Please join us in our mission by making your donation before the end of 2025. Every gift, large or small, joins with our labor and prayer to restore the best of the Western Tradition.
Will you help us today?
Sincerely,
W. Winston Elliott III
