Mount Saviour Monastery
December 2005
News:
For the winter months, we installed a covered link between the
chapel and the refectory. It protects against the wind, the rain
or the snow. Otherwise, we have to go down to the first floor and
come back up again; some aging monks have more difficulties with
stairs. Christmas Eve draws a large crowd for the first Vespers
of
Christmas followed by the blessing of the Crèche. During
the last week of the month, we celebrate the namesday of Br. Stephen, Br. John Thompson and Br. David.
Some members of the Servants of the
Word were here for their annual retreat and were very generous
by sharing their talents with various tasks around the monastery.
Happy New Year
