SBC Conferences

The Saint Benedict Center Conference is part of the missionary and educational apostolate of the Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. This national symposium on Catholic doctrine, spirituality, evangelism, and social teaching brings together clergy, religious, and laymen from all walks of life to extend our Order’s mission to convert America and propogate undiluted Catholic tradition. We work hard to make this yearly event a fruitful combination of the practical and the theoretical.

The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is offered only in the Classical Roman Rite (the so-called “Tridentine”) at our Conference.

Past conferences have featured such speakers as Rev. Lawrence Smith, Rev. Nicholas Gruner, S.T.L., S.T.D. (Cand.) (renowned Fatima scholar), Rev. Paul Wickens, Rev. Stephen Somerville, Mr. Gary Potter (Catholic historian and journalist), Mr. Charles Coulombe (Historian, Lecturer, Knight Commander of the Order St. Sylvester, author of Vicars of Christ), Dr. Robert Hickson (Retired Professor, Joint Special Operations University, U.S. Special Operations Command; Retired Professor, U.S. Air Force Academy; Former Green Beret), Mr. Joseph Sobran (nationally syndicated columnist), Mr. C. Joseph Doyle (Director of the Massachusetts Catholic Action League), Mr. Joseph Kung (President of the Cardinal Kung Foundation), Mrs. Anne Cillis, Mr. Steven Mahowald, and Mr. Jim Condit Jr., in addition to our own religious.
