February 27

Chapter 21

The Rule of Benedict February 27

This chapter in the Rule has informed my approach to the roles that members of our order have discerned.  You are each to share in the spiritual formation of the BSBSB and St. Brigid's Community according to your callings in the order.  This is a true sharing of authority, not merely a delegation.  Therefore, as Prior, I have not been a micromanager regarding the roles/callings you have assumed and been commissioned to live out.  These roles: Porter, Catechist for Children, Deacon, Catechist for Youth, Archivist, Librarian, and Novice Master of Wisdom are really and truly yours to embody in our community.
