The Abbey church was decorated Dec. 24 afternoon for the Christmas season with a Christmas tree, flowers and banners.

Fr. Paul continues to be taken care of at St. Peter’s Abbey. He is suffering from Lou Gehrig’s disease. Since December 3, his cousin Theresa has been providing volunteer support during the night. Monks provide assistance during the day.

Br. Basil hangs up two Advent banners in the Abbey church to remind us of the season preceding Christmas.

Br. Kurt lights the Advent wreath before the meal to remind the community that it is Advent season.
