Enrich your mind and spirit—visit the monastery library!
December 2018
Why do we immediately think of gift buying, holiday decorating and parties when we think of December?
Is it because we think the only way to celebrate Christmas is with trees and gifts and fancy food? Take time this Advent season to pray, meditate and reflect on what Christmas really is about and why we celebrate it.
