Beautifully said. As a divorced man, I still wonder whether my youthful thoughts of becoming a benedictine were a calling. There is an abbey near my home I visit weekly. Even though I have never taken religious vows it is also true that I recently have started taking herbology classes so I am a student of botany. I guess that makes me Joe Pugh, S.O.B.!

San Carlos Rules!!!

Our Lady of Fatima❤bless you.

Absolutely lovely

What better way to live than to serve God the Heavenly Father and his only Son Lord Jesus Christ! ✝️❤️⛪️☦️

Moving "Out West" in 2013; purchasing a home in nearby Killdeer, the wife and I have eye spied this BEAUTIFUL "church". We have driven up to closer investigate. After some time I wondered HOW it, as conspicuously a Catholic entity, was not affiliated with the #3 others in the area that obviously operate as a group (St. Joseph's TwinButtes, St. Paul's Halliday & St. Joseph's KillDeer). Seemed to me (prior to stumbling onto this site) Assumption Abbey in Richardton, ND was "stand alone" Yet reading above I learn of affiliate Tibati in Bogota, Colombia. How interesting. I reared in Loretto, Pennsylvania; we have serious Catholic enclave there.

When can i join ?

I think I am getting my calling …

So close, I made my first Communion in 1955. I still have my First Communion Rosary by my bedside. I say it daily. I remember Irish Father Harte. Nice memories to see the back steps of the Sacred Heart Church. I stood there for my First Communion photos. I learned my first sung mass there..Misa de Angeles= Mass of the Angels. I must have sung that Mass many, many times in my life. Blessings to you. Thanks for posting.🌹

I attended this parade and lived near the water tower. Are those Dr. Vogelweide’s ( my doctor) children in the parade?

Very good.

You are completely wrong Brother. Monastic life is contrary & completely opposed to intimacy. In fact it is discouraged. I know this from experience. I was a monk for 6 years because I believed what you are now trying to sell. It is a lie!

Pointless video.

The birdsong is marvelous!!

Heard all of this before. Not convincing.

Seeing you inspire me ....keep up presevere and pray for the world🙏✝️

Thanks very much for sharing

0:17 I'd live there. We don't NEED anything this secular spits out at us. I've grown so sick of hearing buy buy buy! every time I turn around. I don't need anything that trash heap world spits at us. I do need silence and to be closer to God. The more I give away, donate or throw out, the free'er I feel. It's not all that shockingly to me. Thank you brothers for making this video. A blessing and great teaching for the youth called to be God' and not this world'.

Islam is a religion that calls for the worship of the One and Only God, there is no god but Him and that Muhammad is the Messenger of God Islam is a religion that calls for tolerance and non-racism, and Islam talks about the Prophet Jesus and his mother Mary in the Qur’an , , it talks about miracles that are being discovered now. You can search for that. Islam forbids immoralities that science has discovered that cause diseases and pain. Islam is suitable for people, and it is a cure for the hearts and against racism. I advise you to enter Islam before the day of judgment comes. That day you will remember that I told you that , If you embrace Islam, you will find light in your heart and you will enter heaven in sky after death......

God bless you, brother

Beautifully Done! Peace and the Love of God flow within these amazing walls.

So peaceful + makes me wish I was there.

Monastic life is one way of being human. There will be monastics for as long as there are humans. That said, the number of monastics varies in different time periods. In the current time period there are fewer monastics. Possibly looking at the monastic experience outside of the Benedictine experience would be helpful. There are non=Christian monastic traditions where, after being a student monk, the individual goes out into the world, married or not, to gain life experience, and then returns to the monastery in later life, till the end. A full life.

'And His Kingdom shall have no end...' Oh! Yes.. I almost forgot..

Thanks for sharing

Thanks…though not a Christian…and living with family…I find lots of strength and solace in yours and such videos.. I read The Imitation of Christ and other books daily and love them.

Lord let this 60 year old sinner be the doorman or at least the doormat of your monastery. Pray for me fathers.

Will u help me to join in your monestry .....plzzzzzz

I'm also to be a Benedictine priest , pray for my vocation.

There is more glamour in that one building than in most of the world

From Misión Cruz Hermitage in Somerset, Texas. Blessings

monasticism is the future of the church?

The Church needs the monastic life and monks to inject more into the energy of faith and constant prayer...

Do the monks from the monastery read these comments?

I know I commented just over a month ago, but I would like to read comments from those in the monastery about the age requirement. I think you will find more and more older men pursuing this life.

It was mostly beautiful except I spotted the dreaded Protestant table where the true Altar should be. Please reject all Vatican ll Please. Looking for a order that has not been tainted by Vatican ll & modernism is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

I agree with what he says here, but I really think they should allow older gentlemen into this life. Most people usuallt come to this realization in their later years and they can bring much wisdom. I have thought about this, but I am in my mid 40s, so I don't qualify, which is a shame.

How I wish I could live there just to pray to Our Lord Jesus Christ and his Most Beautiful Blessed Mother Mary.

God Bless you Brother, how I wish that I could be there, the world is very evil and sick, a lot of people don't have God in there lives, and the Love of Our Lord Jesus Christ in there heart. God love you and your follow brother's.

Dear Bro. Bertrand I was reading a card from your dear Mum yesterday! And I do often think of you! God bless you my dearest friend! And suddenly there you are on UA-cam! Ora pro me!

I discovered the Abbey when I was a student at the then Mary College now U of Mary back in 1978, where I made a Search Retreat. A few years later, while living in Bismarck, I became a Benedictine Oblate. I am originally from Eastern Montana, but North Dakota is my second home. I now live in Memphis, TN and whenever I fly into Bismarck, ND, and rent a car, I always make it a point to stop at the Abbey to spend some quiet time with the Lord.

What a blessing! a great teaching tool plus also a reminder that the monastic life is in many ways a small window of the heavenly realm! The monad! 🙏🏼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Follow the truth ,,lord JESUS CHRIST SON OF GOD HAVE MERCY ON ME. A. SINNER

Not in Hinduism and Buddhism

So beautiful 🙏

Pls pray for me am a medical student and still want to leave a monastic life

Our Lord won't let monastic life to die out ever. Because He told Mary of Bethany when she sat at the feet of Jesus to listen to him: "You have Chosen the best Part and it won't be Taken away from you".

when do they molest children or engage in sodomy? that was not covered ... the vatican is the mother of abominations, mystery babylon Revelation 17-18. Will be destroyed in one hour at Christ second coming!
