St Andrew's Abbey at Valyermo, CA





Staying at this beautiful monastery for two days had a profound effect on my spirituality.

I am attaching photos, and will write further as I read my journal of my visit. It's hard to adequately describe the quiet, the balmy temperature of the shade under the apple and cottonwood trees, the sound of birds and bugs and sprinkers the only disturbance to a whole day...I tell you, just go visit this monastery even if you aren't Catholic. I need to get myself a farm to live on.
