I had the privilege of spending several days, then later just short of a month living behind the walls with these wonderful monks back in 2020. Ultimately deciding that I could never live there and never see home again. They don’t allow vacation time. One can only go back home in the event of an immediate family members death. I could never wrap my head around literally NEVER leaving the monastery. I moved on, but these warriors stayed in the monastery. Gods warriors. The unseen heroes of Holy Mother Church. God bless them.

I have been blessed to spend time at Abbey, and it's a slice of heaven on earth.

Hello! I have a question that has arisen out of simple curiosity. Do monastics vote in political elections?

do they sleep in a dormitory as the rule says they should? or are they in cells like most modern monasteries?

Beautiful. But every one seems old. How does it survive into the future?
Some don’t.
How people choose to live just for God? This is alone is a mystery
