Morning Conference

Following Meditation and Prayer Time each morning, the Brothers hold a Morning Conference (in the Refectory) where they discuss policy issues, upcoming engagements (such as Parish Visits for example) and allocate the shared activities for the day. On any particular Saint's Day, the reading of the life of that saint is part of the Morning Conference.

Each Brother is responsible for certain areas of the community life. Decision-making is by consensus.

Activities may include such things as:

	Moving/feeding the animals
	Tending sick animals
	Building fences
	Constructing/maintaining buildings
	Collecting firewood
	Making jams, chutneys, etc
	Getting supplies
