What an amazing 🤩 time we had at Stanbrook Abbe What an amazing 🤩 time we had at Stanbrook Abbey 🕍, for our "Monastery Days" ✝️ there! Stanbrook is situated in the  most stunning location 🤩 just on the edge of the North York Moors 🐑with far reaching views 🔭 beyond the City of York.

Here are some pics📷 of the Day🕍 for you! As you can see, we were made very welcome by the Abbess😇, Dame Anna Brennan, and all of the Sisters💜, who contributed in so many different ways to a joyous Day.🤗 

Sister  Philippa gave the most insightful and moving😟 account of the connection between Stanbrook Abbey⛪ and the Carmelite Martyrs✝️ of Compiègne. 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. 🪓 We were able to see and venerate the relics of these Martyrs. 🙏🏻

Special thanks must go to Sister Josephine 😇, who organised everything for us 💜, and to Sister Steven, who bravely🏅 supervised the cleaning and polishing of the beautiful Mouseman Refectory table and chairs... within the Monastic  Enclosure too! 😅

Alongside beautiful music🎶 from the voluntary Choir 👼🏻, we were treated to a stirring Homily 📖 from Fr Craig Szmidt, who is the Vocations Director✝️ for the Archdiocese of Birmingham. 

We managed😆 to persuade Fr. Craig😁 to join us👫 in an impromptu photo opportunity 📸 on the Sanctuary steps✝️, and here is the pic!🤣

It was an incredibly interesting day 😄 for a fe It was an incredibly interesting day 😄 for a few members of the YouCAN 👫East Midlands Regional Group, and this time exploring Lincoln 🏙️! 

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 🌄 and so they were able to have a nice sunny stroll around the City and the Castle 🏰

They ended the day with a coffee☕, as you do, and then sadly off back home. 😕

YouCAN's 👫next event will our "Monastery Days" at Stanbrook Abbey🕍 on 9 November 2024, that many YouCANners 👫are really looking forward to🤗.

It was another amazing 🤩 "Monastery Days" ⛪ a It was another amazing 🤩 "Monastery Days" ⛪ at the Bernadine Cistercian Brownshill Monastery near Stroud!

YouCANners👫 from our South West and Wales Regional Group met for Mass 🍞 🍷, Confessions, Divine Office, Prayer🙏🏻, and Studying  the Psalms🎼 with the excellent Sr. Philippa. We were asked to think 🤔 about our own👫 relationship with God, and how we live out being Christians✝️ where we live, work and socialise.💜

An important part of the day was, as always, getting to know others 👫. It was wonderful to chat with the Sisters over afternoon tea🫖, and to get to know the Chaplain, Fr. Ted😇 (real name! 😂). No one wanted to leave 😕: a good sign of a successful day. 🤗

Our 👫next "Monastery Days"✝️ will be at Stanbrook Abbey⛪ near York ⛪ on the 9 November 2024.

They👫 had an incredible day hiking🚶🏻‍♀️to the  summit of Skiddaw🚶🏻‍♀️in the beautiful Lake District 🏞️ ! Skiddaw at 931-metre (3,054 ft) is one of the highest peaks⛰️ in England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿...third or sixth, depending on how you measure these things! 😅

Thankfully the sun 🌞 shone ... a little 🤗, and there was no rain, although it was a bit was windy! They also bravely camped out, although it must be said that views from the campsite were incredible and made the experience worthwhile! 🏞️

It was a rather different YouCAN 👫 "Monastery D It was a rather different YouCAN 👫 "Monastery Days" 🕍 today with Belmont Abbey, as we were based at the Church of Our Lady 👸🏻and Saint Michael 👼🏻in Abergavenny. The  Church is 💒 looked after by Fr. Matthew, one of the Belmont Monks.🤗 

We also launched our YouCAN 👫 Cymru Regional Group 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿! James Mulcahy, one of the Regional Admins 😄organised  some special celebratory cupcakes for us, to mark the occasion!🧁

We had a very full day including Mass 🍞 🍷, Confessions 🛐, Adoration ☀️, and a wide ranging discussion based around the Sunday Mass Readings 🎚️with the excellent Fr. Jonathan Rawlinson 😇, one of the Belmont Monks. Making 🙋🏻‍♀️ new friends and meeting old, is also always a wonderful part of the Day.👫 

In the afternoon, most of the group👫, together with Fr. Jonathan😁, headed off on a walk 🚶🏻‍♀️to the top of the Michaels Mount, or Skirrid Fawr, in Welsh. It was a wonderful walk🚶🏻‍♀️, with magnificent views! ⛰️ Also, the sun 🌞 shone! 🤣

Our 👫next "Monastery Days"⛪ Weekend will be at Brownshill  Monastery, 12 October 2024.🤩

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

As much as possible we followed the Divine Office and adhered to the Great Silence 🤐 from the end of Compline to after Mass✝️ , and no talking at meal times😲 either. The silence actually proved amazingly popular! 😅

As with all of YouCAN's 👫 "Monastery Days"✝️, in addition to Mass 🍞 🍷, there was Adoration 🔥, Confession, the Divine Office, Prayer🙏🏻, and Lectio Divina, 📖 about which Fr. Luke gave an excellent talk🤗. Fr. Nicholas spoke about forms of Prayer🙏 that  was quite amazing, with Br. Mathew tomorrow scheduled to answer our many questions ❓ about Monastic life.🕍

As if that wasn't enough, we 👫 really enjoyed😅 herding some escaped sheep 🐑 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 📷with Abbot Xavier Perrin ✝️ who came to assist with the herding operation! 🐑

Our 👫next "Monastery Days"✝️, and launch of YouCAN Cymru 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿, will with the Belmont Monks 😇at Our Lady and Saint Michael's Church⛪ in Abergavenny, South Wales.
