This week we made our annual January pilgrimage. We traveled down to Marbury, Alabama, to visit the Dominican Sisters there and pray the rosary with them, as well.

There was a house available in Marbury, 30 miles north of Montgomery. All he needed to do there was to make suitable adaptations to turn a frame farm house into a temporary monastery..."
