This Sunday, in the universal Church, the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross takes precedence over the Twenty-Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time. This is also the patronal feast of our Abbey. The community Mass will be celebrated at 11:00 AM, Fr. Joseph Wittstock presiding and preaching. This is also the weekend of the Monastic Immersion Weekend and the sixteen participants will join us in choir, grandly inflating our ranks.
Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament will follow Vespers (5:30 PM) and all are welcome to celebrate with us.

The Immersion Weekend was wonderful. It was a great opportunity to get a better idea of monastic life at Holy Cross. Thanks for your hospitality.

Looking forward to being spiritually enriched by Father Joseph’s homily on the “Exaltation of the Holy Cross”. Will it be posted ?
God be Praised that you had a fruitful Monastic Immersion Weekend !!! May vocations come to the Abbey from it !
God bless each of you,
