Although we have been meeting together for the last 7 years - can you believe it? - last night we celebrated our First anniversary as the Transfiguration Community. To mark this occasion, we made promises, not vows, to support our community life. Here is what we promised:
We will honor:
The light of our Benedictine Heritage.
May we always value silence, stillness and prayer
The light of Hospitality.
May we always nourish one another.
The light of Relationship.
May we always remember to value one another, married or Single.
The light of compassion.
May we always be generous in our care for one another.
The light of work.
May we always value each others occupations and activities.
The light of our children.
May we always see them as gifts from God.
The light of faithfulness
May we continue to be faithful to our community life.
The light of honesty
May we continue to share with humor and truthfulness.
The light of Openness.
May we always be open to the work of the Spirit within us.
The light of newness
May our minds not be closed to the adventure of faith.
And our thanks to you who read this webpage and support us with prayer.
May God continue to bless you.
