Monastic Community Retreat

The monastic community is on its annual retreat from 19th to 24th August. This is a time for the monks to go deeper into prayer so that they are better able to carry out their roles in the parish and community. Jesus told His apostles, ‘Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while’ (Mk 6:31). While the monastic community is on its annual retreat this is what we try to do.

During this week, while the monastic community is on its annual retreat, please try to avoid phoning us, except in an emergency.
