Research and Scholarship
The Institute is acquiring the complete patristic corpus by Abbe Migne, as well as other important, modern critical editions of patristic works. To date, we have the entire Patrologia Latina and are
gathering the volumes of the Patrologia Graeca-Latina. These primary resources are available to students and scholars in the fields of patristics, theology and church history, free of theology and church history, free of charge, to assist in their attempts to further the theological enterprise of the Church. To encourage research and scholarship, a grant will be offered annually to one scholar to pursue a theme in patristic studies, either historical or theological in nature.
To arrange a research appointment, please call Saint John’s Rectory at 203-324-1553, ext. 11, or email us at stjc@optonline.net.

Patristic Study Groups
The Saint Monica Institute offers informal study groups utilizing English translations of important patristic texts. The study groups are open to all interested persons (no prior knowledge of patristics is necessary) and are offered without charge, although some require purchase of the text being discussed.
 

Latin Reading Group
The Latin Reading Group meets weekly to read the writings of the early Church Fathers in their original language. For more information, please call Saint John’s Rectory at 203-324-1553, ext. 21.
