The embracing arms of you, my brothers, continues outstreached far beyond the beauty of your holy dwelling place. I carry your love and all you have taught me, in my heart forever.
God bless each of you, may our Lord protect you and overwhelm you with His spirit and love.

Dear Brothers,
Thank you for having the foresight to video this for those of us unable to be there. It gave me great joy to watch Brother Alvaro takes this step and his addition helps to add to Brother Leo’s original vision.
God Bless,

Well I missed this beautiful profession of faith. But how wonderful to have seen it now. You are all a great gift to me, but you all know that.
Blessings to all of you who have the courage to live your life in peace and care for each other.
Congratulations to Br. Alvarez

The video brought tears to my eyes as I witnessed the profession of Brother Alvaro. It was so spirtual and meaningful. Bless you all!
My Sister and I had the privilege of attending this profession while on a trip from our respective states of Montana and Oregon. We have been inspired by the Monk’s music for many years. When it dawned on us that we could actually make a visit to the Priory we planned our first trip to Vermont! It was such a joy and a life long wish come true to be on the Priory grounds with the additional benefit of participating in the spiritual joy of brother Alvero’s celebration. The blessing of that day lives in us. It will keep us spiritually grounded and joyfully alive in the Lord. Blessings- Judy and Sue, Pilgrims from the West Coast

All I can say is Thank God there is a better alternative to living in the world, especially at this time. We are all being asked to choose…Our God or the world as it appears. I choose God!
