Yesterday, Sunday, December 18 our Brother Craig Musolino was clothed in the novice's habit during the weekly Chapter. We rejoice to have him as our brother in community.
O God, in that unutterable kindness by which you dispose all things sweetly and wisely, you gave us clothing, so that a triple benefit might be ours: we are covered with dignity, kept warm and protected in body and soul. Father, pour forth the blessing of your Holy Spirit upon us this morning and upon these clothes which your sons here before us have asked to receive, so that they may serve you faithfully in the Cistercian way of life.
