    It's the second monastery in the US, there is one in California and that one. We are hopefully going to build the third one in Rochester, NY...rabena yedaber.

    btw...Congratulations on the new monastery. :)

  • Marianne87,
    Isn't the monastery in Rochester, NY already by the name of St. Abba Shenouda? Or you mean, it is not yet built.

    There isn't a monastery built yet, or anything for that matter. We just have a huge land across from the church, and we are trying to get some money to start building anything, because we are going to build a retreat house under the name of the pope, Pope Shenouda Retreat House, and we are going to build a monastery with the name of St. Shenouda the Archmandrite. The Pope already came and put the corner stone for both buildings, but there is no buildings yet.
    For more information on that, u can go to the church's website....
