John Michael Talbot's Monastery

The Catholic monastery founded by Christian singer John Michael Talbot in Arkansas' Ozark Mountains was partly destroyed by fire Tuesday night. The Little Portion Hermitage lost its chapel where the fire started, dining hall, archives, library, and storeroom. Some people at the monastery suffered minor smoke inhalation. Talbot began recording rock in the 70’s but after a conversion experience became a well known Catholic acoustic artist. His more than 40 albums have sold more than 40 million copies.
