Here at the Abbey Shop you will find my series of Reflective Art Journals filled with full-color photography, art, and reflections on the spiritual journey. They are small square booklets that fit perfectly in a journal or bag and accompany you on retreat or in times of reflection.
A wonderful guide for prayer and meditation and they also make great gifts.
