Christmas was celebrated with the usual splendour at the Abbey this year. The ceremonies went very well and the music was lovely. We were pleased to have a truly large attendance at the Midnight Mass.

On the 1st of January, Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God and Octave Day of Christmas we enjoyed a company of monks form Chilworth Abbey, which belongs to our Congregation and Province. We had a great day together and enjoyed a lovely luncheon cooked by our Brother Michael.
