Here, we work. Whether in the kitchen, the jelly factory, the laundry, the greenhouse, the brewery or at the guild; whether sweeping, scrubbing, packing or cooking - we work. Our work never eclipses our prayer but provides balance and a level of creativity and expression to our day - all for Christ - in this life that is quite ordinary. We live by the work of our hands - to support our life together in the monastery, to support the poor and needy who seek our assistance.
