In This Week's Current: A Summer Fiesta | Oblates: Recollection and Renewal | Bob Kluge, Blacksmith
Summer Fiesta, Summer Feast
The Stillman Dining Hall emerged from a sleepy summer season to host a delightful fiesta. The gathering celebrated the accomplishments of a program organized by Brother Benedict Maria, providing the young with an artistic, spiritual, and thoroughly enjoyable experience in illuminating manuscripts.
The waning days of August offered a quiet opportunity for the oblates to gather here at Portsmouth, prior to the hectic return of School life. A beautiful summer Sunday witnessed an edifying Day of Recollection, led by Director of Oblates, Br. Sixtus Roslevich.
Br. Sixtus Roslevich continues our series on "The Artists of the Abbey" with a report on a craftsman whose work quietly but significantly shapes our aesthetic space here at Portsmouth, both in the church and on the grounds.
