The Monastic Mirror

Our in-house artist, Sister Mary James Dippold, OSB, has been busy painting several pictures to be raffled in December during the "Open House" for our store, "Trifles and Treasures".

Anyone who knows me will understand my particular love for this picture and the reference to Psalm 42, "Like the deer that yearns for running streams, so my soul is yearning for you, my God."




The picture on the right, captures the beautiful fall colors and scenes the are gradually developing in our northern area.  The sun sets on the horizon and is often a fiery orange this time of year.  The accents of yellow, reds, orange and green appear to jump off this picture as it does during our season of fall. (Sister painted this picture for the Elks fundraiser, along with several others.)

Please keep checking the website and blog for further information on this upcoming event.  Hope to see you there...
