March 18

Chapter 39

The Rule of Benedict March 18

Given that we share a community meal each week, I hear from this chapter a call to be mindful with regard to food and drink.  Let us seek to recognize in ourselves any hints of ingratitude or criticism of the meal, and, on the other hand, let us be aware of our impulses and desires that would have us cast aside moderation as we enjoy the abundance and generosity of our community.
