As we found last year people sign up and then drop off from the Monastic Immersion Week once they get a look at their calendar. This has happened again for the April MIW (check out “Take Part” on home page) and we now have five slots available. Remember this one is for men and women and will give participants an opportunity to really ‘dive into’ Cistercian life in a way that is seldom offered to laypeople. We will be in community with the monks for the Office and have several conferences, meetings and discussions about contemplative life for the laity. There will also be ample time for silence and solitude and prayer.
If you would like more information or a copy of the registration form send email to companions@virginiatrappists.org or call the Companion Office at 540-955-4604.
