Heritage: Your Animal Heart (Video)
It’s no secret that we are animals. One look at your dog or cat and you’ll find common features.

A Heritage of Learning : Book Communion (Video)
This week marks Banned Books Week, a time when we are called to consider the legacy of book banning throughout history and to take some time with these forbidden texts.

The Garden and the Grounds (Video)
We are blessed to have such a magnificent space to celebrate our faith, to find community, and to deepen our relationship with Love and Mystery. The quality of a space transforms the experience of those who dwell within it. The groundskeepers are often overlooked, there tasks seen as mundane, but this could not be farther … Continue reading The Garden and the Grounds (Video)
The Transforming Power of Friendship!
Few things can change the character of a bad day like a good friend. Somebody who listens, even if they can’t understand. Someone who loves to love you just the way you are, warts and all.
