One of the most treasured Christmas customs at Saint Anselm Abbey is the Blessing of the Crèche, the Nativity scene that recreates in miniature the setting of the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ. The monks prepare the manger as part of the decoration of the Abbey Church, then during Vigils on Christmas Eve, the Abbot intones the prayer and blesses the crèche with holy water.
