Abbey Facebook Posts
There is a beautiful stillness that settles right before evening prayer.
It was in that quiet moment yesterday that our community formally welcomed Tony Jackson as he began his postulancy. As the Abbey bells prepared to ring, Tony, accompanied by his parents Barbi and Mark, committed himself to this intentional period of discernment and Benedictine community life.
We are filled with gratitude and joy. We ask that you keep Tony and our community in your prayers during this important time of formation.
Join us in prayer for Tony: Gracious God, we thank you for the gift of Tony and his willingness to answer Your call. Bless him as he begins his postulancy, guide him in discernment, and fill his heart with peace. Amen.
Drop an "Amen" or a prayer emoji below to show Tony your support!

This is the night when Christ broke the prison-bars of death and rose victorious from the underworld!
Join us for our Easter Vigil at 9:00 p.m. in front of the south entrance to the monastery, where we will begin our procession of the Paschal candle to the church.
May you have a blessed Easter!
"I have greatly desired to eat this Passover with you," the Lord says to us today (Luke 21:15). The holy season is upon us. As we enter into this most sacred time of the year, all are welcome to join us as we enter with the Lord into his holy Pasch, the completion of our Lenten journey, and the fulfillment we have all longed for.
During this week of Catholic Schools Week, we are proud to continue our mission of serving the Church and the public through education and formation of character in every generation.
