Life Around the Kartause

It's hard to believe this semester's students left two weeks ago!  The students are definitely missed!  Here's the wonderful end-of-the-semester video several of the students made:



It's always a huge transition as we go from the Kartause filled with about 180-200 students and then they're gone!  Some of the TOR Sisters and Friars were able to stay a little longer, which is a huge blessing!  Over the last couple of weeks we've had a lot of fun gathering as a community and hanging out in Gaming!

Community Lord's Day on the Eve of Pentecost - outside in our backyards



Ellie's Kindergarten Visited the Kartause - Francis joined in and continues to tell everyone about his 'first' day of Kindergarten (which will actually be next September!)







OneStep Retreat - the second annual retreat organized by Brian - geared toward teens whose parents are stationed at US Military bases across Europe.  Our friend, who is one of the CMC (Cyril & Methodius Center) Missionaries, wrote a great post reflecting on the retreat!






First Pool Day of the Season! - we walked from our house to the local pool in the center of Gaming! (I only got pictures in the baby pool, because all hands were needed once we hit the big pool and slide...needless to say, the kids had a great time and I'm sure many pool days are to follow!)





Happy Feast of Corpus Christi here in Austria (we had a beautiful Eucharistic Procession around the Kartause courtyard) and Feast of the Visitation in the USA!!  And happiest birthday to my Mom! :)
