    October 2-9, 2021 | 27th Week in Ordinary Time

    In This Week's Current:
    Joe Soares, Artist "In Residence" | Strengthening Diocesan Connections | Hospitality at Home
  • Joe Soares, Artist "In Residence"

    • Brother Sixtus Roslevich continues our series on “The Artists of the Abbey” with an article on Joe Soares. With Joe’s becoming such a familiar presence in the monastery, we refer to him here, only somewhat in jest, as an artist “in residence.” His diligent and meditative engagement in his workday tasks is exemplary for all of us, yet some may still remain unaware of his extraordinary gifts and accomplishments as an artist. Brother Sixtus provides some background on this hidden dimension of this remarkable man.

    • The School has over the past years continued a practice of welcoming new faculty at an assembly, introducing them to the community and offering them some Portsmouth Abbey School “swag” - including a hooded sweatshirt.

  • Two Saints of Peace
    St. Francis of Assisi, whom we celebrate on Monday, October 4, bears a kind of spirtual affinity with Benedict, which is echoed throughout the traditions linked to their names. We remember both of these saints of peace with gratitude.
