I was at a wedding today and the concelebrant was the bride's uncle -a Norbertine of this community.

They are very faithful and are bursting with vocations.

Here's a 2005 picture of the community:





The abbey (I think they might be building a new one?)



Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament.



"Last year's seminarians".



Palm Sunday Process (anyone recognize the sisters?)

Rosarian Dominican Sisters

Excellent. Thank you

Ah, yes.

The community I have joined, the Canons Regular of the New Jerusalem, has a very fruitful relationship with them. And in fact I will be living there next year because we need a temporary place to stay while we look for a permanent Church (St. Louis Archdiocese sold our old land).

a good friend of mine's spiritual director was a Norbertine, Fr.Thomas Nelson. He said such good things about the Norbertine's. My friend now is a novice with the Carmelities in San Jose, Brother Jason of the Holy Spirit

Fr. Thomas Nelson, O.Praem is the President of the Institute on Religious Life

Then there's the new foundation of Norbertine Canonesses in CA :j
