Abbaye St. Benoit Du Lac - Québec, Canada
Abbaye St. Benoit Du Lac was founded in 1912, when Monastic settlements were established in Québec's Eastern Townships by monks who had been expelled from France.
Today, visitors are welcome to meet the monks and participate in the recitation of Gregorian chants -- many of which were composed prior to 1000 A.D.

Le Choeur des moines de l'Abbaye de St-Benoît-du-Lac - MEDITATION : CHANT GRÉGORIEN
Titre/Title : Cantique : Benedictus I (Anonyme/Anonymous)
Par leur enseignement, leurs enregistrements et surtout leur exemple, le Chœur des moines de l’Abbaye bénédictine de Saint-Benoît- du-Lac
demeure depuis plus de 80 ans le foyer le plus vivant du mouvement grégorien parti de Solesmes au siècle dernier. L’Abbaye de Saint-Benoît-du-Lac est un monastère bénédictin fondé en 1912 dans le sud-est du Québec par l’abbaye française de Saint Wandrille, de la Congrégation de Saint Pierre de Solesmes. En tant que fi ls de saint Benoît et animés de l’esprit de Dom Prosper Guéranger, les moines de Saint-Benoît-du-Lac cultivent avec le plus grand soin la Liturgie. Comme les moines de Solesmes, ils accordent une attention spéciale à la perfection de la prière chantée sous la forme incomparable du chant grégorien. En 2006, Le T.R.P. Dom André Laberge est élu troisième abbé de Saint-Benoît-du-Lac.
Through their teaching, their recordings, and above all their example, the monks of Saint Benedict Abbey in Saint-Benoît-du-Lac have been, for over 80 years, staunch advocates of the Gregorian chant movement that spread from Solesmes, France in the last century. The monastery was founded in 1912 in south-eastern Québec by members of the Abbey of St. Wandrille in France, part of the Benedictine congregation of Solesmes. As sons of Saint Benedict, and animated by the spirit of Dom Prosper Guéranger, the monks of Saint Benedict conduct the liturgy with utmost care. And like the monks of Solesmes, they pay special attention to the perfection of chanted prayer in its incomparable Gregorian chant form. In 2006, Dom André Laberge was elected the third abbot of Saint Benedict Abbey.

Abbey of Fontgombault
Team work between the Benedictine monks of the abbey of Fontgombault and lux lumen resulted in a very discrete lighting setup for their beautiful church. The warm, welcoming ambient is greatly appreciated by visitors of the church, as well as by the monks.
Over 140 StarEyes, StarEye Maxis, PowerEyes and StarPoints are well positioned and focussesd to provide reading light and honour the architectural features.
Due to the nature of the building, and respect for it’s historical value, we used highly advanced wireless Casambi technology.

Fr. Joseph pre funeral prayers with Br. B praying for Fr. J the day before his burial
Monks of the Holy Trinity Abbey monastery in Huntsville Utah prayer for one of the monks who helped start the monastery in 1947, Fr. Joseph. Among many duties, he was the electrician and for many years ran the dairy. He was a IBM typewriter repairman during WW2 and joined the Trappist Cistercian monastery in KY, later known for their famous monk, Fr. Thomas Merton. Monks will pray all night long for their fellow monk until his funeral mass is said the following morning. After the mass, the monk is buried by his fellow monks outside the monastery church. The monks are of an order that is 900 years old... The Abbey of Our Lady of the Holy Trinity also known as HTA where this video was taken closed in 2017. Some of the monks went to an OCSO monastery in NY USA. One of the monks went to be a chaplain at an OSCO convent in VA USA. The remaining monks live out their lives in prayer and contemplation at a former catholic nursing home in UT USA.
