One of my friends, together with other like-minded men, is looking into the possibilities of living out the Benedictine monastic life with strict adherence to the Rule of St Benedict and with the Traditional form of Mass and the Office. At the moment there is no house in this country, unlike some houses on the continent or in the United States, which offers these various elements in combination. Some British houses offer one or other part of the envisaged regime, but not the whole which they seek.
This
group of young men who are discerning their
vocation to the
traditional Benedictine life would like to hear from others who might be
interested, or who can offer support, advice and prayers. They are
having a year of discernment, which started last Advent. Please
keep them in your prayers.
Their blog can be read here, and it outlines their vision. They can be contacted by email at traditional.benedictines.gb@gmail.com

I hope and pray this will come to pass. Badly needed.
