rocking ladies

Today has been a day of challenges and blessings. But then I find they so often are a matched set.

I am truly and deeply grateful for the rain that promises this stunning spring will continue painting my world so beautifully, but I admit that dodging high water spots and short circuited railroad crossing signs challenges my commitment to give thanks at all times and in all places.

But moving through that gave me access to a reunion meeting of women I met at last fall's retreat. They are rocking women with hearts for healing, wisdom, love and redemption. We laughed, we sang, we ate, we hugged, we talked and we plan for the October retreat to welcome new folks struggling with lost expectations, lost senses of place and safety and the loss of hope. 

I love it when we grow and learn and pass it on!

If you are a lady who is or has been affected by incarceration or the incarceration of a loved one please click the contact button above to request information about this program. Or click on the resource links button and check out the Kairos website for activities in your area.

Almighty God, thank you for the thousands of people working in Kairos and thousands more in programs seeking to be Your hands and feet bringing new ways of thinking and acting that are life saving, life affirming and joyful in the darkest of times and places. Thank you for Your ability and willingness to heal our deepest scars and sorrows. Thank you for bringing peace, love and joy where we had despaired of receiving that. AMEN

    Jann's son was incarcerated.  She longed for a community where she could connect with others dealing with similar issues.
