All contribute to the life of the community, sharing their gifts and talents with all, for the service of God. None of us is perfect and we accept each other's weaknesses, knowing that we are stronger together, than alone. We are all involved in the work of the guesthouse in our different ways, from welcoming people at the door, domestic work and in retreat giving.
