Our Monastery Chapel is, once again, open to the public for Daily Holy Mass and all the Divine Offices.
The Gift Shop is also open again and the hours are Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, from 2.15 until 4.15. On Saturdays the Gift Shop is also open from 10.00 – 12.00 Noon, and again from 2.15 until 4.15. PLEASE NOTE: Our Fruitcakes are again available in the Gift Shop—both the large round cakes and the smaller loaf cakes. Barring unforeseen circumstances, these fruitcakes will be available in the Gift Shop from now until just before Christmas, when they are usually sold out.
Also, our Chocolate-covered fruitcake slices are once again available in the Gift Shop—both individual slices and boxed
Our Retreat House is open but until further notice, access to the confessor/counselor will be very limited and not always guaranteed. For more information on safety measures being implemented in our Retreat House and for making a reservation, please email Carol Hensley at information@hcava.org Also, we will continue to livestream daily mass and the main offices of the day: Lauds and Mass at 7.00 a.m. (Sunday Mass at 10.00 a.m.); Vespers at 5.30 p.m. and Compline at 7.30 p.m. (Please be aware that the quality of both image and sound is far less than ideal because of technical limitations)
