Welcome to the Abbey Photo Party!
I select a theme and invite you to respond with images.
Our theme here at Abbey of the Arts for October is hospitality, so I invite you to reflect visually on what either inner or outer hospitality – that radical act of welcoming in what feels most strange as the face of the holy – looks like for you. You can share images you already have, but I encourage you also to go for a walk with the theme in mind and see what you discover.
How to participate:
1. Go to the Flickr Group I have created (when you go to the link it will ask you to join the group first before posting). Share as many as five of your images in response to the theme.
2. Leave a comment below to let us know you have joined the party and what your Flickr profile name is (this is essential to be entered into the prize drawing).
3. Please post the invitation on your blog or Facebook page and encourage others to come join the party!
On Friday, October 5th – I will draw a name at random from those who participate and the winner will receive a space in my upcoming online retreat – Honoring Saints and Ancestors: Peering through the Veil.

When I saw this quote, I didn’t quite understand what it meant but when I thought of it in light of developing your creative gifts it made sense. And then I also thought about how it was posted in a log cabin on an apple orchard by the original farmer in the 1800’s and that also made sense.
Oh I also joined the group in Flickr! :)
I’m Debbie Peace. I love seeing all the great photos!
I’m Cindy AR on Flickr. I have just added one photo, votive candle holders made for a circle of friends who are geographically far apart so we can the flame of our love and connection bright. We were blessedly all together when we lit these for the first time.
