Happy Eastertide! We're now well into celebrating this season which lasts until Pentecost. It's a joyful time of year which keeps the Resurrection and God's great love for us before our eyes. Our  liturgies reflect that joy and we would love to have you join us for them.

Blue skies and warmer temperatures remind us that spring is here and it's time to start planting. This year, if you have the urge to grow your own food or flowers, but need some extra space, why not consider renting a plot from the sisters at the Sunset Drive Garden? These community garden plots are located where Common Ground Garden used to be.

This is a time of hope and new life which means it's also a time of year to think about nurturing your soul and spirit. You might want  to check out the offerings at the Spirituality Center●Studium.

If you have asked specially for information about the Spirituality Center ●Studium, you may have noticed a different e-newsletter in your mailbox. We are thrilled that so many people want to keep in touch with the monastery, but we also know that too many emails can be a pain. We've decided to replace Next Month at the Monastery with a newsletter and event calendar from the Spirituality Center ●Studium, intended for those who expressly sign up. If you would like to receive this, email Sister Tammy Shoemaker at [email protected] and she will add your name to the distribution list.
