   In the Kitchen « In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel ... » Luke 1:26 "Giotto got it wrong. I was not kneeling on my red satin cushion in a shaft of light, head slightly bent. Actually I had just come back from the well. Placing the pitcher on the table I bumped against the edge spilling water on the floor. As I bent to wipe it up suddenly a glow as though someone had open the door to the sun Rag in hand hair across my face, I turned to see who was coming in uninvited, unannounced. All I saw was light bright against the wall. A voice. "You will conceive the Son of the Most High who will save Israel." I stood afraid. Someone closed the door and I dropped the rag." Killian McDonnell Benedictine monk who founded the Collegeville Institute for Ecumenical and Cultural Research at St John's Abbey, Collegeville, Minnesota. USA.
