St Mark's Abbey, Benedictine monastery in Camperdown, Victoria, Australia
St Mark's Abbey contains living quarters for both monks and nuns who collaborate in daily activities and follow the Rule of St Benedict.
The monastery began in 1975 when two monks established a religious community in St Mark's parish of Fitzroy before moving to Camperdown.
Members of the monastery dedicate their days to seven prayer sessions, starting at 4:30 AM, and participate in scripture reading practices.
The monastery maintains a guest house where visitors can stay to experience monastic life and participate in prayer sessions.
The community produces religious items including incense and replica icons, which they supply to cathedrals across Australia.
