  • The Rt. Rev. Anselm Atkinson, OSB, Abbot
    Pluscarden Abbey Dear friends, In 1948 five monks arrived from Prinknash Abbey to begin the work of restoring Pluscarden. Their first task was to make the ruins habitable. They were restorers, not just of buildings, but of a way of life. Their purpose was to establish here a community that would have the same objectives and the same methods as the monks who lived here from the 13th to the 16th Centuries. It was not a restoration in the sense of simply recreating what had been here before, as if the centuries of abandonment from the 16th to the 20th had not been. The medieval buildings, like the community that inhabited them, had never been static. Succeeding generations of monks built onto and adapted the work of those who went before. The modern community would do the same. The restored Pluscarden would be in visible and spiritual continuity with medieval Pluscarden, and a monastery in and for its own time. Visitors today can see in the Abbey’s stones the work of the ancient monks, and hear an echo of them in the plainchant they hear in the Abbey Church, but the monks at Pluscarden now, like all those who lived here before, live with attention to the present moment. Visitors to the Abbey often say they experience peace in this place. Where does the peace come from? From the natural beauty and quiet of the valley; from its history, the prayers offered here, the presence of long dead monks who live to God and therefore, unseen, to us; and from what is done here now.
