Once again the annual retreat to Ampleforth organised by Preston South Circle was a thought provoking success. As the monk's accommodation is being upgraded the monks are living a short distance away from the monastery and are holding their services of Matins, Lauds Vespers and Compline in their temporary residence where there is no room for visitors to attend. We were privileged however to be present at the Solemn Profession Mass of Br Joseph Benedict when he dedicated his life to the Benedictine Order. Also during our free period on the Saturday afternoon some of us went up the hill to the main road to watch the Tour de Yorkshire cycle race whizz passed.
