Chapter 31: The qualities required by the cellarer (paragraphs 2-3)


There will, of course, be appropriate times for the cellarer to hand out what is needed and for requests for goods or services to be made; these times should be observed by all so that failure to respect them may not cause any disturbance or unhappiness in the house of God. (From para. 3 of Ch. 31 of Saint Benedict's Rule, trans. by Patrick Barry, OSB, 1997.)

There are countless ways that I can be attentive to creating an atmosphere that fosters kindness and well-being, and thus be conducive to contemplation.
