Back in the saddle and ready to take on the end of 2017. It would be redundant to mention the shock that October is knocking on our door or we’re winding down a year yet again. So let’s talk of something more interesting.
Did you see the new ...?

To the Light of the Path Volunteers:
We could not begin to undertake an event as huge as a four-week retreat without many, many hands joining in the work. We truly see that we are a community when dozens of us offer our help, in big ways and small, every single stitch an essential part of the tapestry that is the Light of the Path. We are so grateful to have shared this journey with so many people who planned, worked the retreat, helped to pack and truck and clean and buy and sort the items used. We rejoice in the merit we have collected together!
