The Cistercians of Glencairn Abbey
The Cistercians of Glencairn Abbey
The monastic community of Cistercian or Trappistine nuns of St Mary's Abbey, Glencairn, Co Waterford (click here to visit the Glencairn Abbey website), live an austere life based on the Rule of St Benedict, which has barely changed in over 1,000 years. Believing in the power of profound, contemplative prayer, they pursue it wholeheartedly. Their deep inner lives, distinct daily rhythms and shared spiritual journey become a continuous prayer of life—to God and for the world. Over the course of a year, the Sisters gave RTÉ's religious documentary series Would You Believe? unique access to film their way of life. You can watch the resulting film here.
