New Mexico Statehood Centennial
Posted 1/21/12

This year marks the one hundredth anniversary of New Mexico becoming the forty-seventh state on January 6, 1912.

As residents of this wonderful state we monks are rejoicing with fellow New Mexicans. We have no particular celebrations planned here to mark the occasion, but we pray each day for all who live and work in this "Land of Enchantment," as New Mexico is called.

Monastery Crafts
Posted 1/20/2012

In the colder months of winter, though with sunshine still abounding, a number of our monks have been busy during the work period with the making of our high quality soaps, lotions, lip balm, candles, as well as rosaries, and greeting cards. All of these items are sold at our Giftshop here and eventually online as well.

Guesthouse Repairs
Posted 1/19/2012

In these quieter weeks after Christmas, and with fairly good weather prevailing, we have been able to tackle some needed repairs at the main Guesthouse. The complete remodeling of the men's rest room and some exterior wall work are now nearly finished.

We are most grateful for the kindness of those who have contributed to make these projects possible and hope the work now done will enhance the stay of those who come here for private retreat. Our hospitality apostolate continues to thrive, especially in the spring, summer and fall months.
