Profile Information

What is your connection to new monasticism?
Spent a year as a novice in a cloistered contemplative order. This was the groundwork I needed to live as a contemplative in the world. Currently, I teach on prayer and being led by the Holy Spirit.
Are you involved in some form of intentional community or community of intention?
Regularly pray the hours and celebrate Holy Eucharist with a Benedictine community in Sewanee, TN. In addition, I have a ministry to patients on the Alzheimers Unit of a local nursing home. Once a week I enjoy fellowship with this community.
Are you involved in some form of emerging or fresh expression of church?
Revival of the contemplative; prophetic witness of diversity within the church. My photographs are an expression of the contemplative.

Hi Laura!
Wonderful to be in contact with you. I read your profile, and felt a kinship with you regarding living as a contemplative in the world. Regarding my pilgrimage to Spain, yes I'm going alone (something that seems more daunting as my departure date approaches!), but I felt drawn to walk the Camino of Santiago. I hope it will be a chance to leave much of what doesn't work in my life anymore behind, and to embrace a more "real" approach to my life, spirituality and relationships. Plus I need to lose a bit of weight lol!. I will be leaving mid July and returning end of August. Please pray for me.

Good evening, Laura.  I'm glad we will be friends.  Your surname is most appropriate.  So you have a tabby; any other cohabiters?  My little kitty (well, he weighs in at 13 pounds but he is shorter than I am) is my sole/soul companion in the humble little place we call a hermitage.  I look forward to sharing more with you in the days ahead.  Meanwhile,  God bless you and may He keep you in the palm of His hand, always.
