S3 Ep 4: Father Xavier Perrin - life as an Island monk
As Easter approaches, a podcast episode full of hope, spirituality and hospitality.
Island Stories meets Father Xavier Perrin, the Abbot of Quarr Abbey - a place of worship for Roman Catholics and a popular place to visit for Islanders and tourists alike.
Father Xavier tells us about his Island life, a typical day-in-his-life as a monk, his work caring for the buildings and fabric of the abbey and his plans for the future.
