Mount Saviour Monastery
November 2014
News:
The month began with a solemnity: All Saints and we remembered our
deceased monks the next day with some prayers in front of their graves.
Br. Bruno made 3 trips to New Jersey to take our lambs to an auction.
There will be 2 more trips in December. On Nov.12th, the Prior attended
a meeting of the Major Superiors of Men's Community and brought back some
details pertaining to the year for Consecrated Life. On Nov. 13th,
we were officially accepted in the Subiaco-Cassinese Congregation, the
English Province. Most monasteries of that province are small and
have many monastic values that we share. We have many reasons to
celebrate Thanksgiving Day: Br. Antonio is recuperating well from his heart
surgery, the monks are in good spirit , the weather was mild for a longer
period and we were spared from the snow that paralyzed some areas.
On Nov. 28th, Abbot Anselm, the visitor for the English Province of the
Congregation spent a few days.
On Thanksgiving Day, we share our meal with all our guests
We welcome them to do the dishes.
