Mount Saint Benedict is a Monastery situated at St. John Street Tunapuna. It is the home to Monks that follow the Order of Saint Benedict and was constructed over 100 years ago.
The Abbey consists of a church, a monastery, a yogurt factory, an abbey shop and a guest house. It sits on over 240 acres of land that appears to be nestled in the northern range. This abbey is dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary and is titled 'Our Lady of Exile.'
People frequently visit the the Abbey to pray, get counsel or enjoy the panoramic view of the East-West corridor and central Trinidad. It is a peaceful place and gives one a sense of tranquility. The church and the abbey shop are open to the public everyday.
an atmospheric place of holiness, with a panoramic view Trinidad. I also bought my mini rosary for my car here.
ReplyDeleteHi Verne, yes, I bought one for my car as the Abby Shop as well. Did you try their yogurt yet? It's delish
