The fullness of joy is to behold God in all. — Julian of Norwich

Spring at the Monastery

My wife is on spring break this week, and so today she visited the Monastery of the Holy Spirit with her new camera in hand. Here are just a few of her photographs from the day’s adventure:

    Gorgeous photos, what a lucky person she is to have spent time in such a place. The gecko and Mary was my favorite!
