Since the beginning of our family in 2004, we have always enjoyed a good journey to somewhere holy or interesting. Our family name Friar comes from a mendicant monastic order in the Middle Ages which traveled from place to place rather than remain in a cloister. Over the years, our desire to travel has brought us to numerous encounters in different parts of the world. It is our hope in reading this blog, that you will glean much in the way of contemporary spiritual nourishment to guide you in the path to the Kingdom of Heaven.

A Quiet Corner Getaway

The wife and I steal away again from the noise of Boston to celebrate our wedding anniversary this weekend. Spurning the more famous Boston establishments, we have a new favorite getaway in a remote, quiet corner of Massachusetts. The town of Northfield boasts two great advantages over anywhere else we might choose: 1) Its proximity to our nearest Orthodox Monastery of St. John the Baptist in Warwick, MA (only 10 minutes by car), and 2) A bed and breakfast by the name of Centennial House which provides a sufficient amount of relaxation alongside of stimulating conversation.
