Sacred Spaces of Grace for Your Story

Posted by Picasa

Telling the Story – again
Finding the sacred within the story, more deeply.

These phrases came to mind after I had been sharing the story of The Journey with some new friends. I realized that each time it comes from a deeper place within me because it is such an essential part of what we do and who we are.

Our recent week staying in the downtown eastside, with accommodations at The Empress and The Balmoral, brought us into a deeper awareness of how little dignity is given to the poor, the disenfranchised and those whom society cannot figure out where to put. Must we “put” anyone anywhere?

A team of 8 women will be leaving to head to Moldova and Hungary and we will be spending time creating sacred space to share story. Just as The Great Room in the downtown eastside of Vancouver, or Linwood House, is sacred space to honor the journey of each one, so will the sacred moments in Eastern Europe be a place to honor story. We hope to meet with women who have only begun holding their story in the Light. It will be an honor to walk with them as they continue this process and move more deeply into their own calling in these countries.

Those as home will hold the fort and keep the sacred space of Linwood House open for any who need it.
