Anniversary of the first Mass in our monastery in 1959. A few of the Sisters were already here to oversee the construction of the monastery. The remaining Sisters came on February 2nd. Our present Chapter Room altar is the cut-down actual altar on which Mass was offered, and we gather before that Chapter Room altar almost every morning for our work prayers. “O precious and admirable banquet! Life-giving and filled with every sweetness. For what can be more treasured than this banquet? What is more marvelous than this Sacrament?” - St. Thomas Aquinas
