Monastery of San Benedetto, Norcia (Vocational discernment) Uploaded by Catholique_Apostilic Last week we visited the Monastery of San Benedetto in Norcia. That's what you call a special experience, even for a heathen like me. We listened and a half hours to the fascinating stories of Prior Dom Cassian Folsom (look under "daily life" and then under "Meeting the monks'), an American who the sleepy monks living in Norcia a few years ago breathed new life, to the delight of the locals. It was interesting to hear how the Benedictine life is lived, but still had a lot of interesting stories about the renewal and rejuvenation walked in the monastic life. San Benedetto has about 10 monks, with ages ranging from 21 to 47. Neither of them comes from Italy. Remarkable. Cassian was not talking about God (request he let me know that would come during the 'Compline' good) but did give his opinion on libraries, library innovation, the management of a monastery and the obstacles that may be. Associated with change He used the metaphor of reading aloud: Lectio Divina. Monks read texts aloud for centuries, until a prankster who came decided to read. "For itself" That was highly unusual, that was-literally-unheard of! I thought it was a nice story. A few hours later when we watched carpet cleaning phoenix the monks their Compline experience in the church, my mouth was wide open: they sang a passage from Te Lucis, a song that I had just met that week. Way out of my league, you might think, but strangely enough it still gave me a short piece of chicken. But to be honest: this was what I was expecting some of the monastic life. I can not say their presence on Youtube and Dailymotion (and strangely enough not on GodTube), their newsletter (PDF) and smooth their website. carpet cleaning phoenix And certainly not the monks have not changed in essence from the mobile phone to their belts ... but orient themselves by now internationally and digitally. They do marketing, find the potential buyers where they sit. They realize what is going on in the world and they try as much as possible to adapt. It should not be but really crazier: can we as libraries are best to take an example. Benedictine'm not become but you will not tell me what evil hear soon about that old Benedict. He saw it not so wrong. Even then not. You would spontaneously sing a Te Lucis of :-) @
or under the shower then, huh :-) Beautiful hear experiences are there so between blogging. As a monk 'only' means, do modern monks still very different from Benedict. Or do you see it differently? Although the 'ratings' have not been great, of course. But maybe after this post again though ... 04/24/08 21:33
But lustily! The film is a monk we met, namely a large monastery in the mountains elsewhere. He must live nine years ...... alone. They are therefore not forgotten! 25.04.08 09:10

It seems it would have been Milan's Bishop Ambrose in the fourth century invented. Silent carpet cleaning phoenix reading It was Augustine who in the period around 385 comes into contact with Ambrose and determines that it is not read aloud, but silently, carpet cleaning phoenix to himself. Reading aloud is apparently due to the fact that the Latin of the Romans did not contain any spaces or punctuation. Reading aloud helps then. Only after the sixth century there were spaces and punctuation marks, and began to read it silently. Rise One could do silent reading, carpet cleaning phoenix but for practical reasons (reading texts without spaces or punctuation) it was not applied in practice.
