It was wonderful to hear that RTE had shown a wee visit to Silverstream Priory and Dom Mark Kirby in County Meath, Ireland. The community was recently canonically erected as a new Traditional order of Benedictine Monks:
There are also two articles recently published on the web regarding the Benedictine Monks of Silverstream Priory: National Catholic Register & Catholic News Agency. (In the English-speaking world Dom Mark Kirby is the only expert of whom I am aware on Mother Mectilde de Bar whose mystical writings are largely unknown outside of France. But she and her words are so very important for the Church! )
Also, there is a beautiful video concerning The London Oratory Schola Cantorum Boys Choir who have recently released a very, very fine CD:
