Monastic Homecoming: Cloister Surprises & Wool

Returning from a long trip to the Pacific Northwest, I found our monastery cloister in disarray—our pond water supply tanks had mysteriously risen from the ground. In this video, I share how we tackled this unexpected challenge and provide an update on our ongoing sheep and wool processing efforts. Experience the daily rhythm of life as a Catholic monk, where even homecomings bring unique surprises.
