Winter 1986 "Noteworthy"

from Ridgely Benedictine Notes "Noteworthy" section Winter 1986

Oblate Notes - Recent meeting for the Oblates of St. Benedict affiliated with St. Gertrude Priory included talks on Our Lady of Montserrat and Our Lady of Einsiedeln.  January's discussion centered on St. Benedict in the context of the monastic tradition, and February was devoted to Lectio Divina.

Sr. Stephen Marshalewski now assists Sr. Miriam Ruth at the Oblate sessions when they are held at St. Elizabeth's in Wilmington.
