Updates on Monday rather than on Sunday

July 19, 2014 by James 5 Comments

I’ve usually updated Featured News on Saturday and A Word from the Abbot on Sunday. Of course, as you have probably noticed, there have been inconsistencies; just a few weekends ago, for example, our computers were down. And other times, I just have not made the deadline.

At the moment I am in transition, assuming duties at the Retreat House and covering for an employee there, which was not anticipated; and there is at least another work complication peculiar to this week. As a result, I really need a genuine Sabbath and will postpone the updates until Monday. I know the well being of the world nor the balance of the cosmos depends on my updates and I’m confident that this site’s readers have sufficient spiritual resources more conventionally available to them to make it through the weekend!

Thank you for your patience.

    Dear James – Thank YOU and the others for all your work making the News possible. In just a few weeks it’s become a valued and important part of my life, whenever it appears, as has your Liturgy of the Hours – vital connections to a community of deep prayer. Thank you. And enjoy every bit of your Sabbath off!

    Dear James,

    Your time is a precious resource, not to be squandered as the Cosmos does depend on your well being.
