A sacred, special place inviting contemplation and reflection in a lovely rural setting.
The Abbey of Gethsemani的点评
点评：Not a Catholic but it doesn't seem to matter. This is a place to come to reflect and recharge whatever your religion. It is hidden in the hills of central Kentucky , south of Louisville, southwest of Lexington. Right in the middle of bourbon country so one could combine sin and sanctity in the same trip if he were so inclined. But for me this was a peaceful 2 day spiritual respite. There are 7 different services throughout the day - the first being "Vigil" at 3:15AM! I attended most of them and was impressed with the quality for the monks' singing. Fr. Carlos offered a welcoming greeting on the first night and an inspiring homile the next day and was available for private counseling. The retreat is "Silent" except if you are out walking on the beautiful trails , and even then silence seemed appropriate. Guest rooms for retreatants are predictably spare and meals are simple. The Cistercian/Trappist monks are vegetarian but retreatants are served meat with their main meal. There is a gift shop with lots of R.C. literature and the monks' homemade fudge and fruit cake. In the same building is a small museum and an instructive video about the abbey. There is no posted charge for the retreat but contributions, of course, are welcome.
翻译：虽然不是天主教徒，但这似乎并不重要。无论您的宗教信仰是什么，这里都是一个反思和充电的地方。它隐藏在肯塔基州中部的山丘中，路易斯维尔以南，列克星敦西南部。就在波旁威士忌国家的中心，如果他愿意的话，可以在同一次旅行中将罪恶和神圣结合起来。但对我来说，这是一次平静的两天精神休息。全天有 7 种不同的服务 - 第一个是凌晨 3:15 的“守夜”！我参加了其中的大部分活动，并对僧侣们的歌唱质量印象深刻。神父。卡洛斯在第一晚致以欢迎的问候，并在第二天进行了鼓舞人心的说教，并可以接受私人咨询。静修处是“安静的”，除非你出去走在美丽的小路上，即使这样，安静似乎也是合适的。不出所料，静修者的客房很空闲，膳食也很简单。西多会/特拉普会修士是素食主义者，但静修者的主餐是肉类。有一家礼品店，里面有很多 R.C.文学和僧侣自制的软糖和水果蛋糕。同一栋建筑内有一个小型博物馆和有关修道院的指导视频。静修会不收取任何费用，但当然欢迎捐款。
