Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies. Declined by Theroadislong 6 months ago. | |

St. Augustine's House is a male Benedictine Lutheran monastery in Oxford Michigan USA. This monastery was built based on the Swedish monastery in Östanbäck which founded the Benedictine Lutheran community in 1960 by a couple of students and in 1965 they have established that monastery.[1] Father Arthur Carl Kreinheder was the first prior of the St. Augustine's House monastery who founded "The Congregation of the Servants of Christ” which is the official name of the monastic community. Current prior is Father John Cochran. Many have presupposed that Lutherans, as Protestants, don't have monasteries or monks/nuns but that is not the case.[2]
