Photo of Skellig Michael's Cells: home to the Monks of Ireland Francis said: "When the Lord withdrew into solitude to pray and fast for forty days and nights, he did not have a cell or a house built for himself but he took shelter under a rock in the mountain." That is why, following his example, he refused to have either a house or cell on this earth and forbade that they be built for him.
