Ite bloggus est, alleluia, alleluia.


Well, this is it. Tomorrow I will be leaving for the monastery in Norcia.

I will just say that the blog won't necessarily die, it will go dormant for now. Maybe in the future it can be started up again. Even though I cannot blog in the monastery, I will leave it up as a source for translation comparisons and quirky humor. It's been a fun three years.

Again, I ask for your prayers and will be praying for all those supporting me with their prayers.

Pax et Bonum,
The Roman Sacristan

  8. I have not only enjoyed reading your blog but also have learned a great deal, especially during the past year as I have transitioned to reciting the Office mostly in Latin.

    I wish you well as you begin your life as a monk. May Saints Benedict, Scholastica and all the Benedictine family intercede for you.
