“May God be gacious to us and bless us and make His Face shine on us…”
“The earth has yielded its harvest; God, our God, blesses us.
May God bless us still that the ends of the earth may revere our God.”
From Psalm 67.
A heart once truly seized by love is no longer at its own disposal.
Bernard Of Clairvaux
The love of God is born in man by grace, fed with the milk of reading,nourished with the food of meditation,strengthened and enlightened by prayer.
William Of St Thierry
We rely on your gracious generosity and benevolence to support the goals of our Community. Without your loyal help this Community could not survive. We still have much to do to complete the building project of the new retreat center. The center is vital to the Community in serving those who need to spend time in solitude, prayer and a respite from today’s world. Would you please be so kind to help us in completing this project.
