Our April newsletter reflects on Holy Week and Easter, shares improvements to the monastery grounds, and invites renewed prayer and community life.

Our April 2026 newsletter looks back on March and turns toward Holy Week and Easter—a season of prayer, sacrifice, hope, and renewal through the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
This issue invites readers to enter more deeply into the mystery of Christ’s Passion, Death, and Resurrection through Mass, the Triduum liturgies, devotional gatherings, and personal prayer. Its central message is an invitation to live this sacred season together as a community of faith.
The newsletter also reports on improvements to the areas surrounding our chapel in DeLand. These projects were undertaken to create more welcoming and organized spaces for future celebrations, gatherings, and community activities.
The spiritual reflection draws on the Augustinian call to turn toward God and find hope amid suffering. As we journey from the solemnity of the Cross to the joy of Easter, we are invited to deepen our faith, practice humble service, and share Christ’s love with others.
