There was a little snow on the ground before Lauds. It kept falling.
During breakfast there was a merry dance of large snow flakes. Within an hour six inches of snow had fallen.
Before Mass we cleared a path up to the Chapel door. But, no one ventured from the village to join us for Mass. Nonetheless, we Bernardines and Fr. Ted rejoiced on this Gaudete Sunday!
Wishing you all the joy of this beautiful season of Advent, as we pray for those who are struggling in this icy weather, and for the safety of all travellers.
