Amidst the decline of Catholicism in France, the reconstruction of the Abbey of St. Wandrille emerges as a powerful sign of renewal and hope for the future of the Church in France.
As one monk put it, ‘I go before Jesus, and he takes care of the rest.’
This magnificent 12th-century Premonstratensian monument, located a few miles from Mont Saint-Michel, hosts a large spiritual and cultural center project.
The oldest continuously occupied Cistercian monastery in the world has remained unaffected by the vocation crisis in the West, relying on an alliance between its ancestral religious traditions and an openness to today’s world and challenges.
The Trappist brothers, who had announced the closure of the site after 172 years of prayer life on the site, hand over the abbey to the dynamic community from the Abbaye Sainte-Marie of Boulaur.
The monastic grange project at the Abbaye Sainte-Marie of Boulaur has aroused a wave of enthusiasm in the country and is already inspiring other monasteries in Europe.
