looking forward to the rest of the liturgical year

After three eventful months here with us at Helfta - in which we had the first perpetual vows since reformation as well as the clothing ceremony for two novices - we now look forward to summer.

Life goes on with an increasing number of visitors. Groups from parishes from all over Germany come to spend a day with us. Some guests stay for longer in our guesthouse or in the hotel. Some groups organise their own retreats, others come to join our seminars.

We cannot cmplain for the lack of work. But we are very happy to see how our visitors marvel at our growth and development. Surely God's blessing is on Helfta!
