celebrating American Independence day at the monastery

The community of monks in my monastery gets its unusual schedule of their daily prayers and activities inside their monastery today to give way for a civil celebration of the Fourth of July: AMERICAN INDEPENDENCE DAY!

I shall not speak long as I want to pave the way for these numerous pictures of the 'picnic' banquet which we held just three hours ago: Enjoy them...

The Abbot superior, Rev Fr. Abbot Philip Lawrence blesses the food at table!


me and Dom Dunstan, a Canadian- Eukranian postulant-brother of my community gladly posed with me and my irresistibility
