The sun shone as Bishop Hugh ordained our Dom Joseph Carron to the Sacred Priesthood on Monday 12 June. No member of Fr. Joseph's family was able to come, but plenty of friends and admirers were there. A most pleasant buffet meal was served in the cloister garden after the Mass, much appreciated by all present.

The 2023 Pluscarden Pentecost Lectures to be given by Fr Richard Price
…This series of talks addresses a broad range of problems – from that of living in an increasingly godless society to that posed by doubts as to how read Scripture.
It speaks of the need to cultivate one’s own spiritual perception of the world, and uses an autobiography by a nineteenth-century Italian to illustrate how to maintain Christian patience and charity in a context where we have to depend on our inner resources rather on a supportive environment, for that is the situation of a Christian today.
