We have
just begun sewing liturgical albs. Through the generosity of others, God
is providing everything: some very fine sewing machines and a large
table for cutting, as well as scissors, thread, even straight pins! We
have a beautiful pattern for priests and deacons, created for us by some
friends who are tailors. They also taught us all the finishing touches
that produce a well-made garment. The alb is monastic in style and made
from a washable fabric that is practically wrinkle-free.

A few weeks before Easter, we received a phone call asking us to
make “albs” in children's sizes for altar servers and First Communicants
for one of our local parishes! A parishioner who had sewn them for
years, brought us the patterns and fabric. She spent two afternoons with
us showing us all the details and overseeing our work
We are very grateful to all who have helped us launch this project. The
proceeds from our work will not only help us to support ourselves and
make repairs around the monastery, but will also allow us to doing
something beautiful for priests. .

Would you please help us spread the word that beautiful albs at a very
reasonable price can be ordered here?
