Seeking God: The Way of the Monk
at the Monastery of Christ in the Desert |
|
In a remote canyon in northern New Mexico, the early morning stillness is
broken by voices chanting praises to the Lord. And thus begins the daily
cycle in the God-centered life and search of the Benedictine monks at the
Monastery of Christ in the Desert.
Seeking God is a monastic tapestry. The daily life of the monks is
interwoven with the seasonal changes and celebrations, and the candid words
of the monks as they speak of their life, their hopes and doubts, their
hardships, fears and joys, their prayer. Weaving this tapestry together are
the hauntingly beautiful chants, songs of praise and reverence, that echo
through the darkness before dawn, throughout the day, through the solemnity
of Vespers in the evening, and Compline at night.
The majestic beauty of the environment, captured in every season, reflects a
peace and tranquility that becomes an integral part of this monastic
tapestry. The high red rock walls of the canyon where eagles fly cradle the
valley whose stillness is broken only by the flowing waters of the Chama
River and the winds that occasionally funnel through. Seeking God presents
the on-going process of the monastic way through the words and activities of
these Benedictine monks as they move through the day and through the seasons
in their search for God through prayer, work, study, and song.
