The Abbey of Saint-Joseph de Clairval (French: Abbaye Saint-Joseph de Clairval) is a Benedictine abbey located in Flavigny-sur-Ozerain, in the Côte d'Or department. Founded in 1972, the abbey has no direct relationship with the Flavigny Abbey, which has not been occupied by Benedictine monks since the French Revolution. Belonging to the Olivetan branch, the monks wear the black bure and the white collar.
Saint-Joseph de Clairval was founded in 1972 by Dom Augustin-Marie Joly in Clairval, Switzerland. The abbey moved to Flavigny in 1976, since the owner wanting to recover the buildings in Clairval. In memory of this period, the community kept the name of Clairval.[citation needed] The premises used by the abbey in Flavigny were originally built in 1700 as the private mansion of the Marquis de Souhey, governor of Flavigny. They had been occupied by the Diocesan Petit Séminaire.[1]
Contacts were established with the Diocese of Dijon and the community was recognized as a monastery under diocesan law on 2 February 1988.[2] At the request of the Holy See, in 1992 the monastery was erected into an abbey and the founder, Dom Augustin Marie Joly, became abbot.[3] As of 2010 there were about fifty monks.[3] In June 2021 it was announced that the abbey had founded a priory which would take over the premises of Solignac Abbey. Starting in the fall of that year about ten monks would settle in Solignac. It would take about twelve years for the foundation to be recognized as final.[4]
Liturgyedit
At the request of the bishop of Dijon, the conventual mass is today celebrated according to the ordinary form of the Roman Rite, in Latin and ad Orientem (in fact towards the southeast). The conventual mass being not concelebrated, the monk priests celebrate every day the low mass, mostly in the Tridentine form of the Roman Rite.[3] All the offices (including the Liturgy of the Hours) are sung in Gregorian chant.[5]
Spiritual exercises of Saint Ignatius and individual visitsedit
Since its foundation and faithful to its own spirit, the abbey has regularly offered retreats for men where they undertake the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius of Loyola. These retreats generally take place over five days, according to the method of Father Francisco de Paula Vallet (1883–1947).
Men can also make individual visits in the abbey outside of retreat time. They then participate in the liturgical life of the community and can benefit from spiritual accompaniment.
Spiritual letteredit
Every five weeks, the abbey writes a spiritual letter in six languages. It can be received free of charge by e-mail or post by registering on the abbey's website.[3] It is generally a life of a saint.
