Events Around the Diocese

May 31-June 2nd

If you're serious about God, what does He want you to do next?  Listen.  Listen  and act. Why not try listening and acting in a monastery?  Job shadow a monk for a weekend. Monastic Experience Weekend, Friday May 31 - Sunday June 2,  St Mary’s Monastery in Central  MA, 70 miles from Boston. For single Catholic men aged 18 - 40,  an opportunity to discover what a monastic vocation is like by living in the monastery for three days.  Prayer, work, community life.  A balanced and rhythmical contemplative Benedictine monastic life with a 1600 year history. The Benedictine Rule,  ora et labora , work and prayer - backhoe provided! Serious liturgy (Gregorian chant); serious work (intellectual and manual); good humored people (monks; well, that's the theory!)
