EOTH CHICAGO-page-0Eyes of the Heart: Conference in Chicago with Christine Valters Paintner

Saturday, October 19, 2013 at Mundelein Seminary

acclaimed author, Christine Valters Paintner, as she invites us to consider how viewing the world through the lens of a camera (even a humble cell phone camera!) can become a means of “seeing” the Sacred all around us in a fresh,
