Cloistered Existence by Find The River
Shupac writes: Kristine and I got back last night from a couple of days at St. Gregory's Abbey, an Anglican Benedictine monastery near Three Rivers, Michigan. We've been there before and will certainly return. It's a remarkable place for a number of reasons.
First and foremost of is the peacefulness of the place. The abbey grounds include over 200 acres of forest, set within a quiet farming area west of Three Rivers. Traffic is minimal, and most days, the noisiest thing to occur at the abbey is the ringing of the bell for the offices (i.e., gatherings for prayer) and mass. |
