Communal Altar Cloth

Please visit our main website Creating Space to view larger images of the communal altar cloth we painted together at our May 2006 Gathering, facilitated by Amy Wyatt.  It was a wonderful time!

There you can also find dates for our 2006-2007 Monthly Gatherings resuming on Friday, September 8, 2006 from 9:45-12:30, at St. Joseph Church Parish Center, and every second Friday, same time, through May!  Mark your calendars and join us to help nurture a creative community!
