Donna Remenda, kitchen manager, and Fr. Demetrius Wasylyniuk, hold a birthday cake, resembling a bee hive with bees.

Donna made the cake for Fr. Demetrius on his 60th birthday, Feb. 13, 2018.

Fr. Demetrius is the beekeeper for the abbey.

Br. Basil uses the snowblower to clear away some of the snowbanks resulting from the
snowfall in February 2018.

Abbot Peter attended the Abbots workshop at St. Joseph’s Abbey in Louisiana Feb.
2-6. The theme was “Creating a culture of vocation in the monastery.”

The Abbey area had a good snowfall of over 8 inches on Jan. 26. Fr. Demetrius is
clearing the sidewalk the morning of Saturday, Jan. 27.
