I so enjoyed our Tea with the Abbess session. Since I can’t pour you a cup of tea myself I led a brief meditation then shared some of our programs for April and answered a lot of great questions. Such a joyful time with our wonderful community.

We have a number of resources to support you in your contemplative journey including:

April Lift Every Voice Book Club Outside the Lines: How Embracing Queerness with Transform Your Faith by Mihee Kim-Kort

Christine’s forthcoming collection – Love Holds You: Poems and Devotions for Times of Uncertainty

With great and growing love,

Christine
