We do not go away on a retreat
but devote a week of monastic renewal to silence and
prayer, with a couple of talks each day. This year
Dom Gregory Collins, of Glenstal Abbey in Ireland,
who has a deep knowledge of the Orthodox tradition,
spoke about the mysteries of Christ’s life and their
liturgical celebration as moments of revelation into
the development of our own monastic life as a fuller
participation in the life of Christ. He even illustrated
his talks with icons.
