Bernard Stone has gone home

Gentlemen,

I have a bit of information about another of our oldest MSB alumni.

Bernard Stone (Grad 1949) has gone home yesterday and he should be enjoying the comforting love and presence of Almighty God in whom he trusted and believed.

He is in a much better place today.

Bernard was married to Maggie Mosca and spent the last decades of his life quietly and happily among his family and friends in Ajax, Ontario and lastly in Oshawa, Ontario.

Please remember Bernard in your prayers.

Regards,

Nigel

Alan,

Thank you so much for these videos, which I’d not seen before.

It’s nice to remember that the Benedictine monks of Trindad are always there to support us by their prayers.

Wonderful!

Keep safe. Keep strong. Keep the faith.

Nigel

Vespers & Benediction Prayer Service

Join the Benedictine Monks at the Abbey for an exclusive experience of Vespers & Benediction Prayer Service.

The word "Vespers" has its roots in Latin. It means "Evening".

Every evening the monks join together for prayer, consisting mainly of psalms.

Each Sunday, Vespers is combined with a Benediction Prayer service.

In this service the Blessed Sacrament is exposed for adoration and the Abbot blesses all with the Monstrance.

Hi Don,

The regular Circulars shall end with number 1000.

I have thought that since the only outlet that exists is the Circular,

I might publish any extra articles and maybe place them in the Kazim web site for the school.

So this way we might keep the email addresses alive, even if it is to announce deaths.

You must make it public that the Circular has paused and is not dead, haha

The email addresses and web sites still available for information.

And I shall maybe keep a monthly edition of the emails I receive, or when pertinent.

Ladislao

Hi Glen

Here is your courtesy issue under the new norm.

That is, from now on it is sent direct to those who wish to keep the Circular published in a regular basis.

At the end of this Circular you will find the request for funds required to keep this going for 2021.

As you mentioned while back, no well wishes and praises will cover the financial needs required for this to happen.

It is not in God´s hand but your hands and your donation, deposit to make the miracle happen.

God Bless

Ladislao

Thank you for the 1001 circular.  Wow, that is wonderful 

I would like to send us$80.00 for the circular from Canada,

What is best?

Cheers, Glen.

Will send thru Western Union soon,

Cheers Glen.

---------------------------------------------------------------.

Hi Glen

Please remember to send it in two parts, 40$ and 40$

This is because there are problems to cash larger amounts than 50$ due to the amount of zeros in the exchange rate and banking machinery.

Today 80.00$ would be close to 144.000.000.00 and the exchange machines are programmed to less than 8 digits.

In the name of the Mount Boys; we raise up Robert (Baby Joe) and the Azar family to the Lord during this difficult time.

May God bless and be with y’all.
