The Summer/Ordinary Time issue of Thin Places is now available and includes:

•   "Dreaming is personal . . ." a vividly remembered childhood dream and what came after,
•   "Going Deeper . . ." many paths to follow, by yourself and with others... many Opportunities to explore, like "Evensong with Prayers for Healing," "Back to School," "Rest, Reflect & Restore for Teachers," "Seeking the Sacred Thread," and "Rumi, Benedict, and Spiritual (Un)Becoming" . . .
•   Remembered words, from authors known and unknown,
•   "It's getting so noisy in here I can't hear myself think" and more . . .

And, as green growing things burst forth around us, let us remember and give thanks:

"Like light dappling through the leaves of a tree

  and wind stirring its branches,

  like birdsong sounding from the heights of an orchard

  and the scent of blossom after rainfall,

  so you dapple and sound in the human soul,

  so you stir into motion all that lives. . . . "

from Sounds of the Eternal, by John Philip Newell
