Another long silence concludes with several exciting events. On August 6th, 2010 Brother Anthony Zemenick made solemn vows in Norcia. We are pleased to offer you our ‘homemade’ video hosted by youtube which took place during a solemn Mass in the Basilica of San Benedetto, built over St Benedict’s birthplace.

In July we hosted our 11th annual summer discernment program. Participants included four men from the United States, one from Costa Rica, and two young men from England. Activities included prayer, study, and of course many hikes in the local mountains. Some photos are attached. On our pilgrimage to Subiaco, this year we also discovered a large waterfall and swimming hole, not from the saint’s cave. Could it be that the young Benedict also swam there?
Now preparations are underway for the simple vows of Br Lee Smith from Manchester, England and Br Christopher Davoren from Dallas, Texas. What new names will they receive…? Check back in a week’s time for the answer. In the meantime please continue to pray for our growing community. We keep the needs of you, our friends, benefactors and the whole Church in our daily prayers.
In Christ,
Fr Benedict Nivakoff, O.S.B.
