There was a certain monk who lost himself in the desert, and he said to himself, 'I have kept myself rightly, and I possess all the virtues,' and he prayed to God and said, 'If I be lacking in anything, show you me how I may perform it.' And God, wishing to humble his mind, said to him, Go to such and such a head of a monastery , and whatsoever he tells you to do that do.' And God sent a revelation to the head of the monastery, and said to him, 'Behold, such and such a monk will come to you, and say you to him, Take a whip in your hands, and go forth and pasture swine.' ' And the monk went forth immediately, even as the head of the monastery told him, and pastured swine, and when those who had known him formerly, and those who had heard about him, saw him pasturing swine, they said, ' you see the great monk about whom we have heard, behold, his heart has gone mad, and a devil has seized him, and he is [now] pasturing swine.' Then God, when He saw his humility, and that he was hearing and bearing the reproach of men, set him free so that he might go back where he had been formerly.

  • The Quies SBPCLC 5 steps commitment to the 11 guidelines is founded in sanctifying grace, which is the Life in us of the Most Holy Trinity
  • Quies is the fruit of being continually in the Presence, Love and  Will of God, living with and in the personal intimate friendship with the person of the Lord Jesus-Christ, a grace we personally and collectively aspire and feel called to fulfill as lay faithful, essentially guided by Saint Bruno's desert fathers spirituality: being with Christ.

Q: "What does one learn in the desert?"
Father Mina: "To have an authentic sincere Love towards Christ"
Q: "What experience of God do we make here?"
Father Mina: "We make the experience of the personal intimate friendship with the person of the Lord Jesus-Christ... The interior real lived sentiment of the intimacy with the Lord: I Am with you."
Q: "Thank you"
Father Mina was the first companion of Father Matta El-Maskine, one of the first 7 hermits of the Saint Macarius Monastery. He lives here in the manner of the first monks of the desert.
