Description
A Quiet Day with St Scholastica
As the sister of the more famous St Benedict of Nursia, St Scholastica inevitably got the job of being the founder of, and patron to, Benedictine nuns. However, the single recorded story about her can be quarried by everyone for rich seams of wisdom to encourage our life of faith. This is what we will seek to do during this Quiet Day…and discover why Scholastica is also invoked for protection against violent storms.
Led by the Revd Sister Alison Fry OSB
Alison was a research scientist before becoming an Anglican priest. She is now a nun at Mucknell Abbey, where she is Novice Guardian and a gardener.
