What an amazing 🤩 time we had at Stanbrook Abbe What an amazing 🤩 time we had at Stanbrook Abbey šŸ•, for our "Monastery Days" āœļø there! Stanbrook is situated in the  most stunning location 🤩 just on the edge of the North York Moors šŸ‘with far reaching views šŸ”­ beyond the City of York.

Here are some picsšŸ“· of the DayšŸ• for you! As you can see, we were made very welcome by the AbbessšŸ˜‡, Dame Anna Brennan, and all of the SistersšŸ’œ, who contributed in so many different ways to a joyous Day.šŸ¤— 

Sister  Philippa gave the most insightful and moving😟 account of the connection between Stanbrook Abbey⛪ and the Carmelite Martyrsāœļø of CompiĆØgne. This year the Community⛪ celebrate a 400 year Jubilee. Part of their history includes being imprisoned during the French Revolution with the French Carmelites who went to the guillotine. šŸŖ“ We were able to see and venerate the relics of these Martyrs. šŸ™šŸ»

Special thanks must go to Sister Josephine šŸ˜‡, who organised everything for us šŸ’œ, and to Sister Steven, who bravelyšŸ… supervised the cleaning and polishing of the beautiful Mouseman Refectory table and chairs... within the Monastic  Enclosure too! šŸ˜…

It was an incredibly interesting day šŸ˜„ for a fe It was an incredibly interesting day šŸ˜„ for a few members of the YouCAN šŸ‘«East Midlands Regional Group, and this time exploring Lincoln šŸ™ļø! 

The day started off quite wet and windy 🫣 so they headed into the magnificent Cathedral⛪ for a look around. Just as they were leaving the Cathedral,  the clouds made way to some sunshine šŸŒ„ and so they were able to have a nice sunny stroll around the City and the Castle šŸ°

They ended the day with a coffeeā˜•, as you do, and then sadly off back home. šŸ˜•

YouCAN's šŸ‘«next event will our "Monastery Days" at Stanbrook AbbeyšŸ• on 9 November 2024, that many YouCANners šŸ‘«are really looking forward tošŸ¤—.

YouCANnersšŸ‘« from our South West and Wales Regional Group met for Mass šŸž šŸ·, Confessions, Divine Office, PrayeršŸ™šŸ», and Studying  the PsalmsšŸŽ¼ with the excellent Sr. Philippa. We were asked to think šŸ¤” about our ownšŸ‘« relationship with God, and how we live out being Christiansāœļø where we live, work and socialise.šŸ’œ

An important part of the day was, as always, getting to know others šŸ‘«. It was wonderful to chat with the Sisters over afternoon teašŸ«–, and to get to know the Chaplain, Fr. TedšŸ˜‡ (real name! šŸ˜‚). No one wanted to leave šŸ˜•: a good sign of a successful day. šŸ¤—

Jonathan Rawlinson šŸ˜‡, one of the Belmont Monks. Making šŸ™‹šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø new friends and meeting old, is also always a wonderful part of the Day.šŸ‘« 

In the afternoon, most of the groupšŸ‘«, together with Fr. Jonathan😁, headed off on a walk šŸš¶šŸ»ā€ā™€ļøto the top of the Michaels Mount, or Skirrid Fawr, in Welsh. It was a wonderful walkšŸš¶šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø, with magnificent views! ā›°ļø Also, the sun šŸŒž shone! 🤣

It was another incredible šŸ’„weekend and this tim It was another incredible šŸ’„weekend and this time for YouCANers from our Southern England Regional Group, and others😃, at Quarr Abbey on the beautiful Isle of Wight šŸ–ļø! It was fun getting there as we all had to take either the car ferry šŸ›³ļø or hovercraft! 🤩

As much as possible we followed the Divine Office and adhered to the Great Silence 🤐 from the end of Compline to after Massāœļø , and no talking at meal times😲 either. The silence actually proved amazingly popular! šŸ˜…

As with all of YouCAN's šŸ‘« "Monastery Days"āœļø, in addition to Mass šŸž šŸ·, there was Adoration šŸ”„, Confession, the Divine Office, PrayeršŸ™šŸ», and Lectio Divina, šŸ“– about which Fr. Luke gave an excellent talkšŸ¤—. Fr. Nicholas spoke about forms of PrayeršŸ™ that  was quite amazing, with Br. Mathew tomorrow scheduled to answer our many questions ā“ about Monastic life.šŸ•

As if that wasn't enough, we šŸ‘« really enjoyedšŸ˜… herding some escaped sheep šŸ‘ continually circling  a flower bed, immediately in front of the Abbey Church⛪, back into their field! 🤣 This did, however, give us an opportunity to have a very quick photo šŸ“·with Abbot Xavier Perrin āœļø who came to assist with the herding operation! šŸ‘

Our šŸ‘«next "Monastery Days"āœļø, and launch of YouCAN Cymru šŸ“ó §ó ¢ó ·ó ¬ó ³ó æ, will with the Belmont Monks šŸ˜‡at Our Lady and Saint Michael's Church⛪ in Abergavenny, South Wales.

As part of our "Monastery Days" šŸ• initiative , As part of our "Monastery Days" šŸ• initiative , YouCANners šŸ‘« will be spending the May Bank Holiday 🤣weekend next year with the Cistercian āœļø Monastic Community of Caldey Island, just off the South coast of WalesšŸļø. With the launch of our new Cymru Regional Group šŸ“ó §ó ¢ó ·ó ¬ó ³ó æ, our visit is most timely! šŸ¤—

Rina spent last weekend on Caldey šŸļøplanning the trip, and agreeing the programme with the Abbot šŸ˜‡, Fr. Jan Rossi. It is  going to be amazing! šŸ’„

Here are some pics šŸŽ„of her visit, including some of the Monastic Community at Adorationā˜€ļø, the Parish Church ⛪ of Saint DavidšŸ“ó §ó ¢ó ·ó ¬ó ³ó æ, with beautiful stained glass window of a fish 🐟, and the stunning beach šŸ–ļø, where the boats from the mainland arrive. šŸ›„ļø

A real surprise 🄳was meeting the natives of Caldey: redšŸæļø squirrels! The Monks šŸ˜‡ maintain feeding stations for these beautiful creatures throughout the islandšŸļø. The squirrels appear in the early evening, when their constant chattering is pure delight! šŸ˜
