It consists of a wise balance between the solitary (eremitic) life and community (cenobitic) life. The eremitism is manifest in the fact that each monk lives in a cell (little house with small garden) separate from the others; he habitually takes meals alone; he does the "lectio divina" and other personal prayers in cell; he perhaps does manual labor alone; and he spends the time remaining after work and common prayer in cell. Together for Sundays Meals and daily Holy Mass Fr.

The Laura has both male and female hermits. Though I am not sure it is fair to call it a mixed community because of the manner of life. The hermits spend most of their time praying the canonical Divine Office in their own cells or working on a task in solitude. Hermits have the Blessed Sacrament reserved in their own cell and pray before it many times a day.a very rare specific vocation.. They eat, work and perform Lectio Divina "alone with the Great Alone". They meet only for daily Mass that ends with 20 minutes of silence before the closing benediction. No other offices are prayed in common except for Sunday. The hermits admire greatly the Desert Fathers and try to imitate their wisdom in our midst.
