This weekend I’m the chapel musician and I’ll sit in on the sessions with Becca Stevens from Thistle Farms as she presents
“Love is The Most Powerful Force for Change in the World”
According to author Becca Stevens, her life’s work as a priest and as founder of Thistle Farms (a community of women healing from prostitution, trafficking, and addiction) has been to learn how Love Heals (published 2017). She says “I have learned the lines that divide us are so small and what we hold in common is so much more powerful. Community holds the key to healing. In today’s world we are all busy with the tasks of our everyday lives and leave little room for community engagement and transformation. But this is where we need to focus for healing, for ourselves, and our world. Let us get busy surrendering to our faith; let us get busy loving one another, and serving each other, and forgiving each other, and learning how to walk in faith.” At this retreat you will hear stories of hope from survivors and learn how you can incorporate daily practices of healing into your own life.
There will be singing! We begin at 7:30 pm August 3rd and go through Noon on Sunday August 5th.

I’ll stay on through August 11th and have some free time to play in the chapel. It’s almost like having a vacation, except there’s some work.
