Dear God,

How wonderful it is to walk on holy ground!  Marie Joseph Spiritual Center opened their doors to our group and we stepped inside, knowing, believing that you would meet us there.

During our weekend away, we sought your face.  We listened for your voice.  We looked for signs of your living presence.  We longed for your touch.  As we opened ourselves to you and one another, trust was built and we spoke our truths, our sorrows, and our concerns to one another.  We could do this because you dwelt among us.

As we made our way home today, we remembered and were glad.

Thank you,
Holy God,
for trust
that is built
on solid ground.
Thank you
for holy places
that offer
respite, hope,
and peace.
Thank you
for Marie Joseph,
for her sisters,
her love,
her prayers,
and her
holy ground.

Love, Andrea
