We are delighted to report that our Store (now officially named Monastery Books & Gifts) opened for business in August 2017!

A heartfelt thank you goes to Dale Liid (another good friend of our monastery) and Dana, his daughter, for handcrafting our new Store sign.

Thank all of you for your kindness and generosity!
