A wonderful gift from our monks!

The monks of Papa Stronsay have blessed our home with a wonderful gift: a gorgeous prie-dieux!

Wee Elspeth has a good look at our new arrival.

This is one gorgeous prie-dieux! Thick heavy wood that I'm guessing is oak? And the kneeler pad is wide and cushions so well that my bad knee doesn't ache. I love the shelf where I can store my prayer books and rosary.
Our family is going to grow up with this prie-dieux as a central part of our daily life! What a lovely Christmas gift!
