Enrich your mind and spirit—visit the monastery library!

August 2009

Summer is half over, and the stores are none too subtly reminding us that school begins again soon.

Before the hectic school year returns, take time to contemplate the beauty of summer, find some peace within and participate in a program at the monastery.

The library will be moving into its new space this month, so pardon our disorganization at first. The stacks will be ready for browsing as quickly as possible. You are encouraged to visit the new reading room and reacquaint yourself with some old friends like Thomas Merton, Henri Nouwen and Kathleen Norris.

The monastery library has recently added the following books to its collection:

Best, Thomas F., ed. Baptism Today. Collegeville, MN: Liturgical Press, 2008.

ordeyne, Philippe and Bruce T. Morrill, eds. Sacraments. Collegeville , MN : Liturgical Press, 2008.

These titles and many more await your discovery!
