The Order of St Cuthbert is an Anglican monastic order founded in 2019 by the Reverend Canon Kenneth Gillespie together with other Anglican priests and deacons, operating under the oversight of the Special Jurisdiction of the Armed Forces and Chaplaincy with an international presence in the United States, Canada and Nigeria and retreat facilities in Tennessee and Alabama. Its monastics follow a rule described as a historic Celtic monastic tradition similar to a Franciscan rule, and the order's ministries include clergy retreats, pastoral interventions and restoration counseling.
