Klosterneuburg around the world!
The life of the Stift is lived in three or four parts of the world, so here is what has been happening in the World of Stift Klosterneuburg.
Filming in the Stift
In the new entranceway of the Stift a short film will be shown, depicting life in the community. In preparation for that we have been enduring a fairly steady stream of long filming sessions. Occasionally -but only occasionally- tempers run short!

DeMatha's Annual Visit
Once again Dom Clemens enjoyed giving a tour of the Stift to students from DeMatha High School in Hyattsville, MD, over visiting the local high school for a week.

A visit to the Roman Brethren
At the end of March Dom Clemens decided to pop down and see Doms Alipius, Maximilian and Josef in Rome. He enjoyed the hospitality of the Scots College where they live and tagged along for a brief expedition to Frascati. Maximilian doesn't appear in the pictures because he was dutifully studying back at the college.

The Bishop in Bergen
Recently the parish in Bergen was visited by Bishop Markus. The parish was delighted to welcome back its former pastor and now its chief pastor! He also held a vocations weekend in our house there. His continued help in recruiting good, solid vocations is a blessing.
