*In April, we will not have Taizé in the Desert as the third Friday of the month is Good Friday*

All are welcome to join us on the third Friday of each month at 7:00 PM. This is an ecumenical and interdenominational form of prayer. Taizé is a spirituality that is easy to experience and hard to describe. Invite your friends and family.

Thank you for continuing to join us for this evening of prayer through the style of Taizé!

Concert by de Profundis @ Norbertine Abbey
The de Profundis a cappella men’s ensemble of Albuquerque will perform a concert in the Santa Maria de la Vid church at the Norbertine Abbey.
 
From their website (http://www.depro.org/): “The name “de Profundis” is Latin for “out of the deep” from Psalm 130. It plays on the distinctiveness of the male voice, while at the same time bespeaking the conviction that music has the capacity to reveal the profound, that which is concealed within our own depths.”
All are welcome; free-will donations accepted.

Our Story

In the years after Vatican II, under the leadership of Abbot Benjamin Mackin, a conviction grew among the men of St. Norbert Abbey in DePere, WI that the canonry should put forth a greater effort to serve the increasing number of Hispanic Catholics in the United States.
