Douai Abbey: The Monastery of St Edmund, King & Martyr
Published by HSK in News · 14 October 2019
» For most of last week the superiors of the EBC's monasteries of both monks and nuns gathered at Douai for one of their regular meetings with the Abbot President. They welcomed the Abbess of Kylemore (Ireland) and the Prioress of Mariavall (Sweden) to their meeting to help prepare for their petitions to the EBC General Chapter in 2021.

» Our novice, Fr Gregory, is currently on retreat preparing for his upcoming simple profession of vows. Please keep him in your prayers.

» On 7 October Fr Abbot celebrated Mass for the new pupils of Bl Hugh Faringdon School in Reading. With their families present as well, there were about 300 at the Mass.
