A large part of a monk’s day is spent in prayer, both public and private, and in meditation.
This is the primary purpose of the lives of contemplative monks and nuns as we continue our daily seeking for God.
We trust that if we are faithful to this calling then, with God’s grace and mercy, we will build a deeper relationship with God and with our fellow human beings. Our prayers are not for our own benefit, but primarily to praise God and to intercede for the “needs of the World and all its peoples”.
Accordingly, at our Community Masses we pray especially for the events that are taking place in the World and for the people affected by them.
