Enrich your mind and spirit—visit the monastery library!

October 2009

Does it seem like everyone, from television to the newspaper to your family, has ideas about what you should be doing now that autumn has rolled around again?  Am I going to add my voice to all the other voices overwhelming you?  Yes, but before you shut me out, I want to propose you celebrate autumn.  Yes, celebrate.

I propose you celebrate autumn by: 1) walking one or all four of the nature trails at Holy Wisdom Monastery; 2) participate in daily prayer at the monastery; or 3) visit the monastic library.

Please join us in our celebration of autumn.

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

Bartlett, David L. and Barbara Brown Taylor, eds.  Feasting on the Word: Preaching from the Revised Common Lectionary.  Vols. 1-5.  Louisville, KY: Westminster John Knox Press, 2009.

These titles and many more await your discovery!
