The Order of Saint Luke: All Saints Chapter

Mid-Winter 2026 Retreat Jan. 28-29 Oceanside, CA

Refresh your Soul through Sacramental Living:

It has been an exhausting time in our lives. 


The Covid-19 epidemic, social and economic disruption,

political upheaval, and massive social services dislocations have happened one right after the other.

Christian communities have been stunned and our leaders exhausted. It feels like we're overwhelmed.


"Sacramental Living" means not only shaping our lives to live in a continual sacramental presence, but immerse our hearts in a world-wide sacrmental family as well. 

Our Souls need refreshing:

The Order of Saint Luke is part of the Ancient/Future of century-old practices and music that engages our ever-changing social landscapes. 


Spend January 28 & 29 at the Prince of Peace Abbey in Oceanside with us as we deepen our spirituality, grow closer to God through the Christ,  and bring us closer to each other in support and understanding. 

We are family together:

For centuries Covenantal Orders have provided the source and safety for us to nourish and grow a faith able to withstand the storms of society around us. 


The Order of Saint Luke is just such a "religious order rooted in the Wesleyan tradition, dedicated to sacramental and liturgical scholarship, education and practice.”


We are committed to to Sacramental Living to transform our lifes, our famiiles and the world around us.

Prince of Peace Abbey

Immerse yourself...

               ... in the tranquility of  130-acre grounds.

Take solitary hikes amidst nature, invigorating bike rides, 

or leisurely walks along the scenic 3.3-mile San Luis River 

Trail that leads to the beach. 


The combination of spiritual practice and the opportunity 

to connect with nature enriches the monastic experience, 

providing a perfect backdrop for a life dedicated to prayer

and contemplation.

The Prince of Peace monastery is not just a place to live; 

it is a sanctuary where the beauty of creation

 meets the depth of the soul,  offering a unique and 

enriching journey for all.

Every Thursay Evening Prayer-4 pm (online)

Join us for our weekly Evening Prayer Liturgy on Zoom

Every Thursday @ 4 pm, we meet on Zoom to share a time of Evening Prayer with Prayer, Silence, Scripture,  and Song.  (There are occasional postponements for other events and activities.)

It's a refreshing time that prepares us for the evening and puts our day in perspective.

All are welcome to join us and enjoy the companionship and encouragement of our journey together. 

We use the Evening Prayer Liturgy from "The Book of Offices and Services" by The Order of Saint Luke.

Welcome to the OSL of Southern California and Hawaii

We are an ecumenical covenant network in God's commonwealth for Sacramental Living.  


We are composed of brothers and sisters  (and many others who are interested) across Southern California and Hawaii.   Together, we are committed to providing the spiritual support, challenge, and insight for a vital and meaningful life in our creating God, the unconditional love of Jesus Christ, and the power of the Holy Spirit. 


Rooted in the methodist tradition, the Order currently includes United Methodists, Lutherans, Episcopalians, Baptists, members of Holiness movement churches, and many others in the Christian families. 


As an Order, we have two complementary emphases.  

   • First, our corporate focus is on sacramental life 

                       with sacramental and liturgical scholarship, education, and practice.  

   • Second, we emphasize ongoing, accountable personal spiritual formation, 

                       guided by the Rule of Life and Service.


The General Order of Saint Luke has comprehensive information on the global nature of our order.  Click on this link to learn about our background and worldwide activities.


Locally, we are developing new local activities and resources for your spiritual journey in sacramental living.  See our activities section below for our current schedule.

May, 2026 OSL "All Saints" Chapter Gathering

--- Mid Winter Retreat 2026 --- January 28-29

All around us, the Jesus story seems over-hyped and underwhelming 

to most people. 

Where do we find the fresh eyes and ears to see and hear the unconditional love of God compellingly?


Our focus on Sacramental Living 

does that. 

It includes renewal of:

·  The Eucharist, Baptism, 

& Baptism Renewal

·  Forgiveness, Repentance, Reconciling & Healing

·  Prayer, Worship & Contemplation

·  A growing passion for 

Spiritual Growth 

 and Faith-led social concerns.
