Photos from the 2026 calendar

The 2026 Abbey of St. Walburga wall calendar features photos of our Sisters performing the ordinary, and not-so-ordinary, daily tasks of monastic life. The Benedictine motto, “Ora et Labora” (“Prayer and Work,” in Latin) is the featured theme for this year, and each of the photos highlights a quote from the Holy Rule of St. Benedict. It notes the days of the Church’s liturgical seasons, together with days commemorated by the Order of St. Benedict, as they are observed by our community. 

The cost is $14.00 per calendar + shipping.

This year’s calendar features stunning pictures of the tapestries that hang in our Abbey Church.  They were woven for us by Frau Walburga, OSB, at our motherhouse in Germany for our chapel in Boulder in the early 1960s.  Woven of hand-dyed and handspun wool, they depict the “Mysteries of Mary,” something like but not quite identical to the mysteries of the rosary.  The calendar also gives the days of the Church’s liturgical days and seasons, together with days commemorated by the Order of St. Benedict, as they are observed at our Abbey.
