It has been a bad few weeks at the monastery with the death of a beloved ewe, a female llama, from our beloved "Mamma Llama", and on Holy Thursday we lost one of our Jersey cows (Lucina) after she gave birth to a lovely, healthy heifer calf.
This morning we learned that friends who were here for the Last Supper Meal and Mass gave us a check to purchase another Jersey. The Lord takes away but gives in abundance. We all look forward with great longing to the feast of Easter and the joys it brings.
