Silverstre­am Priory thriving

-

ON Thursday, 31 May, under radiantly sunny skies, the Benedictin­e Monks at Silverstre­am Priory, Stamullen, Co Meath held the procession with the Blessed Sacrament that traditiona­lly marks the feast of Corpus Christi.

The procession, attracting a number of local people, wound its way through the monastery woodlands that, at all other times, are off–limits to outsiders.

The Benedictin­e community at Silverstre­am, known for its Gregorian Chant, is thriving, with vocations coming both from Ireland and from abroad.
