abandoned near the abbey

The same day we had traveled to the Edison Mines someone we were with had said something about an old abandoned house near Saint Paul's Abbey. Saint Paul's Abbey was founded in 1924 by missionaries that had just coming over from Germany and East Africa. The main purpose of the setting up of the Abbey was to teach American Monks how to run a proper monastery, note the house you will see pictures of is not actually part of the Abbey but it is close by. To this day the monks who live there continue to take missions to Africa, also the Abbey is now home to Newton High School's Soccer and Lacrosse teams. During the winter seasons you may be use to a ton of cars parked there as the Abbey is a cut down your own Christmas tree farm.
