At the end of Mass, Fr Abbot pinned up Br<br />

Cedd’s hood, to mark the start of his<br />

three-day silent retreat. This ended with its<br />

unpinning at Conventual Mass on 12th<br />

January. During these days of retreat, the<br />

newly-professed monk attends the Divine<br />

Office, Mass and meals, but does not<br />

communicate with others. Normally,<br />

therefore, he arranges to see family and<br />

friends before the ceremony, as he does<br />

not attend the post-Profession lunch held<br />

in the Main Hall.<br />
