One of our Christmas Traditions


This tradition that harkens back to the days when our Sisters had charge of the kitchen and dining rooms at St. Vincent Archabbey (1931-1987).  Some of the monks would awaken the Sisters for Midnight Mass by singing Christmas carols to them. 

Today, the tradition although different, is enjoyed by both our communities.  The monks drive over to St. Emma's on the afternoon of December 23 and we spend time singing Christmas carols together and then enjoy sampling a few cookies afterwards.
