Caronavirus Update – Abbey of St. Walburga

We are now in our second week of “lock-down” at the Abbey. Thankfully, none of our Sisters have shown signs of the coronavirus yet, but our hearts go out to all those who have suffered and died from this disease. We hope that it will quickly come to an end, and that in the meantime we may use this trial as an opportunity to grow in deeper, more intentional love for each other and for the Lord, fixing our gaze on those things that are eternal.

Our cemetery on the morning of the first day of the “lock-down.” We pray especially for all those who have died from the coronavirus, and for the families who cannot be present with their loved ones at their passing.

“…light and darkness, bless the Lord…”
Daniel 3:72
