There's a lot going on in the life of NessDoor and Life! (Babe Finley Claire and fam have moved to Austin; we are getting out-buildings at the farm repaired.) NessDoor continues to be a sacred place of prayer, solitude, retreats, and creativity.
Please, if you are on FB, look for the NessDoor page with this photo (left), Friend me and join in.
There are words of wisdom passed along from scholars and friends, authors and artists.
NessDoor: Open Your Soul To Rest.
Spiritual Direction is available. Just contact me.
Space is also available for prayer/meeting groups. There's even a bed if you want/need to nap! The Lord continues to open up opportunities for the house to be used.

NESSDOOR RETREATS HAPPENED EVERY 5-6 WEEKS:
Here are some photos of retreat creative expression from August, September, October, and soon November. Retreats follow the liturgical year of the church. Right now we are in the season Ordinary Time and the season of Advent is approaching the Sunday after Thanksgiving.

July 10, 2019:   Happy 1st Birthday, Finley!

PictureFinley's (reluctant) art!
It's been a full, very Blessed year of being a grandmother, Nessi, to our sweet granddaughter.  Trips to Denver to keep Finn have been a rhythm I could not have imagined.  I'm so in LOVE!  I have a wonderful daughter in law and son who allow me to spend as much time as I can with her.  I suppose I need to add a page to this site: Life Loving Experiences all about being Nessi!
Personal creative endeavors slowed down, but NessDoor has flourished with lots of meetings, prayer, and day retreats:  Unmasking- Living as the One and Only YOU; Advent Quiet Day- A Soul Day just for you; Epiphany- Follow Your Star, See the Wonder; Lent- Rhythm, God's Beat for you; Approaching Ascension- Forgiveness. (Ck the NessDoor page)

Now that I'm about to embark on another Cody Center art offering at Laity Lodge, Dale Bruner, July 18-21, I'm preparing to spending time with people in the studios for two afternoons.  While I always leave the door open for any creative expression, my focus will be on Painting with Paper.  Other options will be PwP on cedar cuts, wood burning, and limited jewelry/Anglican Prayer Beads.  The Cody Center has it ALL!

Last June 2018 I had a grand time at the Studios at Laity Lodge during the Earl Palmer retreat.  Aside from just the wonder of the teaching, the people gathered there made the afternoon art offering truly rich.  Here are some of the creative expressions from that time:
