That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for June 19, 2018

The seminarians all used smoking break as an excuse to get out Fr. Christopher’s Aramaic class.

Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to serve beans for dinner.

“ ‘These high tech smart locks are really cool’ you said!”

Remember! A christian always looks on the bright side. We have a brand new monastery!

Don’t go obsessing over the fact that they forgot to install a door.

“Another fire drill? We just had one last Thursday!”

“Rapunzel….Let down your golden hair, it’s my turn to come up!”

Some guy up there just called my mother a hamster!

I don’t think singing hymns will work; it’s gonna take some trumpets or something to bring down these walls.

The one in the centre is doing a facepalm.

“Open the door, Richard…”

Should have splurged for robes with pockets.

200 monks and ONE men’s room? I’M using those bushes !

If only Father would let us have Sunday School outside every day!(I love the colors used in this painting!)

The ladder is behind the garden shed in back.

Father Dave’s not here, man.

Waiting for Happy Hour to start. at St. Vino’s Monastery,Winery & Roller Rinks.

We will always remember Fluffy and hope she rests peacefully, amen.

“I see the Doctor has mended his chameleon circuit again.”

Check if the key is under the doormat.

If they built such a nice monastery, you think they might have included a chapel so we didn’t have to pray outside.

Cosplay trappists monks, in line for the keg tap.

brand new monastery and one shower room, thank you god.

I am not quite up to snuff yet, having only discovered this comic yesterday, but I have to say I am awfully damn impressed! I have it on my queue now.

⇧ better get up to snuff quickly so you can start grading it…

We spent 257 years building this thing and nobody remembered to pencil in a doorway?
