After a week of deeper prayerful reflection on the mysteries of our faith under the guidance of St Benedict and St Ignatius, the monks are now gearing themselves up for the work that lies ahead. Two things in particular are going to keep them quite occupied in the coming weeks. First and foremost, the search for a stable home. Several properties will receive our visit in the coming days and weeks. Please keep this in your prayer intentions, asking St Joseph to show us where we need to be. Second, we are preparing the first edition of our monthly newsletter, and part of that is getting started on a database with names and addresses. But in the midst of the work, the Lord give us many joys: this week we look forward to celebrating the great feasts of St Joseph and St Benedict back to back and reflecting on all these two great saints have to teach us in our monastic life.
