I'm watching from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK. Thanks for the video. It is very enlightening & informative. I visit LA from time to time & will sure visit the Abbey someday to 'hunt for peace.'
Do the guest rooms look similar to the monks cells ?? Same size? Did you feel no a/c was difficult to live with in the heat? I know the monks don’t have a/c
Since I did not go into the monk's enclosure, I don't know how the guest rooms compare to the monk's cells. Since the monastery is at about 7,000 feet in elevation, the heat in the Summer can get uncomfortable, but it is not extreme. At this elevation, it does cool off at night.
Thank you for this beautiful flim, my brother was a monk out in Oregon. He's since passed way on me. , but lii never forget the impact on my life he gave to me.
This is not in the Navajo Nation. The Chama River does go through Chamita right before it joins the Rio Grande north of Espanola. I don't know where Pueblo Chimaya is located.
St DAVID BENEDICTINE MONASTERY WAS SHUT DONE 5 years ago and property under development. 4 Monks there for 40 years had to find new Communities . Tragic Come Holy Spirit Come Back Renew Benedict Communities .
I am saddened Our Lady Guadalupe Pecos New Mexico Dual Monastery was prohibited by Benedictine General Italy . Tragic I participated in House Prayer 1982 changed my life 12 in Group 2 men and 10 women . 1995 School Spiritual Direction best like Training in all my Academic achievements. Then 1996 Completed Spiritual Direction and became Oblate St Benedictine Community . Holy Spirit was ALIVE AND MOVING IN THIS COMMUNITY . ABBOTT DAVID AND ABBOTT ANDREW WERE Spiritual Fathers and Sister Mariam and Sister Elaine Spiritual Mothers . Come Back Holy Spirit Come Back Dual Monastery is needed our our Times in our Broken World .
I really enjoyed this video. Yes, in 2018 there was no cell (so it was payphone or zippo). Today in 2022 there was pretty good Verizon/Sprint service, however, If of interest, I did a much shorter little 2 minute impression video after a weekend retreat at St Andrews in 04/2022. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-I9Mf-ZXwyX0.html
Just watching this video took me to a peace inside myself. What a beautiful area. Alan, I noticed the respect you showed all there not trying to get them into conversation, being so quite. I love how you mentioned the mother bird getting a little "used" to you. What a generous giving to all of us to be able to feel like we are there. Thank you.
Hi Alan H. I might be 5 years "late" but I'll comment anyway. I'm from the Philippines and never gone out of my country. Thank you for the tour of New Mexico, it's as if you brought me there, too. Your pace is laudable, I was able to "taste" the surrounding and road. Thank you so much.
Goodness gracious this video brings back memories. I spent much time here years ago. Room 6 was my favorite. Then, there were wood stoves in the guest rooms, just ot mention one of the changes. And oil lamps, because it was before the solar panels. It's wonderful to hear that Brother Andre is s still (or was in 2016) the guestmaster.
I know old post, but just seen this, first thought I have is roller-coaster. That road does not look to relaxing to drive down for a sunday drive. Kinda made me dizzy.
The monastery is open to both men and women. I think there were more women retreatants than men the several times I have been there. They are currently closed during the pandemic, but I am looking forward to the day I can return.
If this monastry is in the desert since 1964 and brothers from all over the world come here to be with Christ Jesus and experience His life in their life so that they can walk in his footsteps, then it's only the work of the Holy spirit. May the holy spirit bring in more worthy followers here to serve the Lord in His vineyard.❤️GBY
Alan, Thank you for this video. I have many fond memories of staying there in the summers in the '80s. My grand parents had close ties to the monastery. I remember helping prepare meals and maintain the grounds with Abbot Philip. It was such a unique and peaceful place to connect with God.
