Our Lady of Fatima Monastery, Mt. Laurel, N.J.

6
Seven times a day as a community, we meet to pray the Divine Office. In the inspired words of the Psalms we praise God and bring before him the needs of all mankind.
8 At the very center of the monk's existence, is the celebration of the HOLY EUCHARIST. It is at this moment that Christ infuses into all of us, the riches of His Divine Love. We are refreshed as an individual and as a community.
 
7 Essential to our monastic life, is simplicity and separation, provided by the silence of the cell, library, or enclosure. Here, we listen to the Master in the solitude of prayer and meditation.

9 In our active parish ministry, the Church calls the contemplative community to be witness, intercessor and teacher The Monk becomes the teacher to the faithful, of a deeper understanding, love and closeness to God.
