Mount Saviour Monastery
February
2006
News:
The book, The Contribution of Monastic Life to the
Church and the World, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the
monastery arrived
and was mailed to all who had ordered it. It deals with what influenced
Mount Saviour over the years and with the impact of the monastery on
people. The video is a second tool to
see our life and
to hear some of the monks as they explain their life style. These
two items are available at the Shop by printing and mailing the order
form. Residents of the Scranton area
will be able to see the video on the CTV channel on March 14th at 9
a.m. and on March 28th at 8 p.m. On Febr. 17th, Fr. Martin
attended the annual meeting of the Benedictine Abbots and Priors at
Conception Abbey, MO. Our Christmas Chronicle
was sent to the printer. The delay enabled us to add more
news. The covered link between the chapel and the refectory was
put to the test with winds of up to 60 miles an hour. A 20 foot
section tilted sideway because some nylon ropes slipped. A minor
miracle enabled us to bring it back on its legs with minor damage.
