      THE CHAPEL
      The heart of Enders Island is the Chapel of Our Lady of the Assumption. It was constructed from local fieldstone with stones from Fatima, Lourdes, Knock, Mont-Saint-Michel, the Abbey of Pontigny, St. Michael’s College, Selma, AL, Medjugorje, Jerusalem, and Rome. Consecrated on December 8th, 2002, this Chapel serves as the centerpiece of our Community’s life of prayer and liturgical celebrations.

      THE RELIQUARY
      The incorrupt body of Our Patron, St. Edmund of Canterbury (1180-1240), lies in state in a reliquary above the high altar of the Abbey of Pontigny, southeast of Paris. It was at this Abbey that the Society of St. Edmund was founded in 1843.  We’re honored to have the principal relic of St. Edmund in the Chapel of Our Lady of the Assumption so that we are reminded of his continuous intercession. St. Edmund has long been known as an intercessor for those who are in need of healing.

      The Catholic Community from its earliest days invoked the intercession of the Community of Saints. When it was not possible to visit and pray at the tombs of the Saints, the practice developed to bring the relics of Saints to Churches scattered around the world. The bodies of Saints that were incorrupt were understood as a heavenly testament to the Holiness of the life of the Saint.  We are blessed to have an extensive collection of relics given to us.
