Mount Saviour
Monastery
January 2005
News:
The new year started without snow on the ground. On
January
2nd. the community was invited to the ladies guest house for high tea
prepared by Maureen Cadley. On the 6th, we saw our first
significant snow fall with 8 inches of snow and ice. This time of
the year is rather quiet at the monastery because the weather can be
risky for the guests who have to travel long distance. We were
spared if we compare with other cities around us. Fr. Martin
joined the monks of Weston for a series of lectures in Cuernavaca,
Mexico. At the end of the month, he attended the annual meeting
of the North American Benedictine Aboots at the Prince of Peace Abbey
in California.
