      A Word from our Amma

Greetings in Christ!
 
Advent is a quiet time in this monastery.  All work is put aside, except that most important work--the Work of God, Saint Benedict's name for the daily round of common prayer.  During these weeks between Advent, Christmas and Epiphany, we stop, still ourselves and wait.  We listen; we ponder; we pray.  We set our hearts on hope.  
 
I pray for you, dear friend, that despite the ever-increasing demands of the holiday season you will give yourself the gift of some time apart each day to remember Hope.  To remember Love.  To invite into your heart and home our Savior, Christ the Lord--he who was promised in ages past, who dwells among us in every act of love, and who will return in glory to reign forever.
  
Grace and Peace,
+Mary
