It’s a great day at San Damiano. The group here is awesome and they are truly embracing the theme of “spiritual pilates.”. Indeed, many are doing deep soul work and reflecting on their own time in the desert. It is good to see Grace in action as people open up,…

I have something very silly to share. Back when we re-arranged our dining room and got some new furniture, I decided that I very much wanted to move some of the “stuff” that had accumulated on our kitchen counter to a new space. We had a big box of charging…
