"…and what brought you to Saint Meinrad?"
When you have a connection to Saint Meinrad - whether as a monk,
student, co-worker or oblate - one question often arises: What
first brought you here?
Our podcast team from "Echoes from the Bell Tower" opens this
new set of episodes with just that question. Hosts Br. Joel Blaize,
OSB, and Br. Kolbe Wolniakowski, OSB, discover the stories behind
how people find their way to Saint Meinrad.
Featured in the first of this two-part episode are:
-
Monks Fr. Denis Robinson and Fr. Christian Raab
-
Alumnus Fr. William Burmester
-
Oblates and students Ginger Thomas and Crystal White
-
And co-workers Mike Gramelspacher and Tammy Becht.
Included in this blog post is a podcast extra. In this 2-minute
interview, Fr. Denis Quinkert explains how he first came to Saint
Meinrad - then left for another abbey and came back a few years
ago!

Up next: In two weeks, we will release more
stories of how people ended up at Saint Meinrad. These include a
near-death experience, a search for knights in shining armor,
arriving at Saint Meinrad during the Second Vatican Council, and a
little nudge from God that caused a retired beach bum to move
across the country to play the organ.
