The wreath was built with evergreens – chosen for their hearty appearance and remembrance of the life that had been and the life that was shared. Without end and without beginning, each branch was selected and placed upon the great wreath that would be hung from choir loft on the Third Sunday of Advent until Christmas. This was the week of wreath-making
If you know wilderness in the way that you know love, you would be unwilling to let it go...

I wasn't sure why I kept this blog alive -- other than not seeing a reason to delete it. And now, the reason to keep it is here. A new adventure starts this week! A blog re-boot begins now, to tell the stories and share the pictures. I hope you enjoy.
I'm stopping here
on this bench
and I'm going to see if I see you
I'm going to refuse the anonymity
of being lost in the sea of my own agenda
I'm going to sit right here and look
and wait
Second Sunday of Advent -- Around our Wreath
Light one candle for Hope
Hope for those who gather with us
Hope for those without hope
Hope for those alone
Hope for those who battle illness
of body, mind or spirit

Emergence: // as defined by living the Advent journey:
1. to connect/in a process of becoming/releasing into presence
2. to act as one body in reaching new frontiers
3. to live more humanly/[from the root] to create silence
4. to move together toward E (mmanuel)
