Dear Father Donald,

 

Thank you for a real treasure - it is so moving to enter upon such intimate scenes from within the world of the Atlas Community, not least indeed to see the word/phrase that encapsulates the whole of the Atlas story, in Dom Christian's own handwriting, A-DIEU.

 

That will be oft visited, and ever cherished. It is a lovely tribute to them.

 

. . . in Our Lord,

William

Atlas Mountains Monastery of Tibhirine  A new website, on the Trappist monastery of Tibhirine in Algeria, has been built by the Church in Algeria. The  real-life story of the monks  who lived there until they were killed in 1996,  has been told in the  award-winning film 'Of Gods and Men'. The site includes some original photographs and personal accounts by the monks. The monastery has been restored and now welcomes visitors and pilgrims.
