Mepkin Abbey Monastery App

Contemplative insight from Mepkin Abbey, drawn from our daily liturgical readings and homily. Help us to pray, one thought per day.

Healing love of Christ,
reaching out, gathering in,
the glory of God

Fasting, like breathing
inhale-exhale, give up - take up
just like and with Christ.

Guard your heart in the good, and treasure will accumulate.

An open heart is the only way to make space for our transcendent God; vulnerability the only way to touch his immanence.

By prayer and by touch, the sick need help being brought to Jesus. We all need others’ help being brought to Jesus.

Feb 05

Life happens. Jesus is there in gentle approach to grasp our hand and lift us up.
