      <image:title>Blog - Gratitude Expressed - Whisper’s Call</image:title>
      <image:caption>I hear the breath of stillness a gentle blowing, a quiet stirring awakening within my soul to arise and come to You I thought You’d come as a windstorm to blow away my desperation or like an earthquake to shatter all my doubts and fears, or as a fire to burn away the pain and empty dreams but You come as a whisper to pierce through what’s the purpose the wonders and the whys to open a highway in the wilderness of discovery and on the mountain opening to ask “What are you doing here?” to know whisper’s call is You. So meet me in the answers I can so easily give You and touch me deep within give me lasting longing for resting in the moment waiting in the stillness, surrounded by Your presence to hear whisper’s call.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“Blessed are those whose strength is in you, whose hearts are set on pilgrimage” . . . In October 2022, our happy band of nine peregrinos (pilgrims) set our hearts on pilgrimage along 72 miles (116 kilometers) of the Camino de Santiago (Way of Saint James) from Sarria to the Cathedral in the ancient city of Santiago de Compostela, Spain.  I lived in Santiago in 1982. Back then, only about 1400 “religious zealots” walked the Camino. In 2022 they recorded the highest number of pilgrims in history at 438,182! My heart has been set on doing this pilgrimage for 40 years!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“. . . As they pass through the Valley of Weeping, they make it a Place of Springs. Autumn rains also cover It with pools . . . ” The week before our journey, there had been nothing but sunny days, but each of our days was filled with rain and even wind storms! So, the words in the verse about autumn rains and pools of water are appropriate. But the result of so much rain resulted in so many RAINBOWS!  Identity and Lament With all the rain and rainbows, I couldn’t help but draw an analogy for my experience in Santiago in 1982. It was a time of passing through a “Valley of Weeping.” I journaled about it in answer to one of the Camino’s Inner Preparation Questions, “Why do you want to do the Camino?” It is a lifelong dream I have had since 1982 when I lived in Santiago de Compostela as a nanny for a newly-arrived missionary family. It was a very difficult time as I saw the anatomy of a marriage that eventually led to divorce many years later. Much of their anger and frustration toward each other was misdirected toward me, and I was spiritually abused (no way to sugarcoat it either). The lies I was told about my identity coupled with my people-pleasing nature were devastating, but God spoke clearly to me to GET OUT OF THERE and gave me promises for whom I would become, and I am becoming who He created me to be. So, I am returning to the “scene of the crime” 40 years later as a healthy, God-pleasing adult! We learned about lament in the 2nd Half Collaborative. I wrote one as I processed my return.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - How a 2nd Half of Life Pilgrimage Healed a First Half of Life Wound - We journeyed with 7 young people “whose strength is in the Lord,” and who truly “go from strength to strength.” Most of our group have been involved in some capacity with international work, and are in an authentic spiritual community together (Station 5 in the 2HC). What a pleasure to spend extended time together along the pilgrim road and into the evening over long dinners. George and I would often hang back and pray for these young people. They are people whose hearts are truly “on that road that leads to the Lord” (Psalm 84:6; GOD’S WORD Translation).</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - How a 2nd Half of Life Pilgrimage Healed a First Half of Life Wound - “. . . they go from strength to strength on the way that leads to the Lord …” With our experiences of contemplation and community, it naturally led to mission (Station 7 in the 2HC). People were curious about the commonality of our group. While drying our wet shoes by the fire, one woman asked us what we were doing all together. Elizabeth and I talked about our desire to be “True to Christ, Kind to People, and Take the Gospel to the Nations,” and she eagerly said, “Tell me more about this!”</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - A slow and silent leaning into a long grief</image:title>
      <image:caption>The sculpture pictured here is called Melancholy and was created by Albert Gyorgy. It portrays the void that grief leaves us with. It was exhibited in Geneva, Switzerland for a long period of time. I went to Lake Geneva to find this sculpture, but it had already been removed to another location. When I show people a photo of Melancholy they draw a deep breath and are quiet. It evokes deep emotion.</image:caption>
