Peace and calm. Following the Benedictine Hours. Exploring personal spirituality in silence.
Wonderful, peaceful, close to God.
A Benedictine style of worship and hospitality, ancient but relevant to modern day lifestyles. Hard to describe, you definitely have to come and experience this in order to understand it.Well worth a visit - while it still exists.Not many genuine communities will survive much longer without a wider appreciation of the lifestyle that they seek to provide.
O Lord,who for our sake became poor,that we through your poverty might become rich;strengthen all those who, at your call and after your example,have left behind everything that they might take up the crossand follow you in the threefold way of poverty,chastity and obedience.through the consecration of their livesand the power of their prayersmay your church be strengthenedto be more perfectly conformed to your image;for you are alive and reign with the Father and the Spirit, one God,now and forever. AMEN
After my home, my favourite place in the world. Wonderful Benedictine hospitality, delicious food, simple but comfortable rooms, a cozy common room with a wood fire for chilly days, plus plenty of beatiful grounds to wander through between meals and services. The monks are wonderful, and surprisingly funny. Come even for just for a day and you'll have a little bit of Alton Abbey with you fit the rest of your life.
