L’Abbaye bénédictine d’Échourgnac face à la crise que traverse l’Église.

In brief

The Benedictine Abbey of Échourgnac is experiencing the effects of a broader crisis within the Church, according to the Diocese of Périgueux.

The diocese reports that this crisis stems from multiple complex causes and has resulted in a noticeable decline in religious practice and new vocations. The editorial team for Église en Périgord met with sisters from the community to discuss how these trends impact their life and work at the abbey.
