Enrich your mind and spirit—visit the monastery library!

September 2009

The new school year is upon us, and the beginning of autumn isn’t far behind.  Soon, the trees will be clothed in brilliant oranges, yellows and scarlet, and the crisp air will be filled with the sounds of Canadian geese winging their way south.

What better way to celebrate the season than by helping with environmental restoration projects on Saturday, September 19, when we host our annual fall Community Workday?  It’s a great opportunity to meet new people and greet old friends, while enjoying the beauty of the monastery grounds.

Don’t forget to visit the library or come for prayer and reflection.  We hope to see you soon!

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

Holyhead, Verna A.  Welcoming the Word in Year A.  Collegeville, MN: Liturgical Press, 2007.

Barnhart, Bruno.  Second Simplicity. Mahwah, NJ: Paulist Press, 1999.

Wessels, Cletus.  The Holy Web.  Maryknoll, NY: Orbis Books, 2000.

These titles and many more await your discovery!
