Ordination
"A vocation is a fruit that ripens in a well cultivated field of mutual love that becomes mutual service, in the context of an authentic ecclesial life. No vocation is born of itself or lives for itself. A vocation flows from the heart of God and blossoms in the good soil of faithful people, in the experience of fraternal love. We are designed with a dreaming brain and a hopeful spirit; it is our nature to envision the life of our dreams. And while dreaming comes easy to us, we must never forget that it takes strength, dedication, and courageous action to bring that dream to life."

Monastery of Santa Maria de Flor da Rosa, now the Pousada Mosteiro Crato
The Mosteiro de Flor da Rosa is considered to be the most important example of a fortified monastery in the Iberian Peninsula; it is now a hotel in the Pousadas of Portugal chain.
This monastery is made up of three distinct buildings: the Gothic-style fortress church, a gothic pavilion with 16th-century alterations, and the other conventual premises.
The whole set has been altered throughout the centuries, namely in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and later in the twentieth century, where there was a greater concern for preservation of the original Gothic plan. In fact, in the time of King D. Manuel I, the monastic space was enlarged to a greater number of rooms, turning it into a Royal Palace, with the great earthquake of 1755 and a devastating storm in 1897.
The Monastery of the Order of the Hospital of Flor da Rosa was classified as a National Monument in 1910 and in the 1940s, restoration work began. Later, in 1991, work began on conversion to a Pousada de Portugal, by architect João Luís Carrilho da Graça, opening to the public in 1995.

The Monastery of St. Varlaam is an Eastern Orthodox monastery that is part of the Meteora monastery complex in Thessaly, central Greece. It is situated at the top of a rocky precipice 373 meters above the valley floor. It was founded around 1350 by a monk named Varlaam, followed by a few other monks. Decades later in the early 15th century after Varlaam died, the cliff was abandoned.
In the early 16th century two brothers from Ioannina, the priest-monks Theophanes and Nectarios, reactivated the abandoned monastery. They settled on the cliff spending many years building a new chapel dedicated to “All Saints” in 1541.
The Holy Monastery of Varlaam offers exceptional views to its visitors as well as a beautiful new museum where they exhibit many of the monastery’s valuable relics, art, and manuscripts.
