Planning celebrations for Abbess' feast day. The sisters are so willing and even longing to share their "talents" for the joy of the community. I love that line at the end of RB, "...and may he bring us together to life everlasting". Sounds good to me. We have walked the monastic journey together so why not go to Him together. Who was it who saw us all just sitting outside the gates of heaven waiting for us all to go together! Hope we don't have to wait too long! To me it is the little things we do together which make community life so enriching. You have to throw yourself into it heart and soul and always just be ready to be the spark which lights up the lives of the sisters
