I am a Sister of St. Joseph who like most Catholic sisters cares deeply about justice, peace, and the care of creation. I also love music (Yo Yo Ma) art, and culture. ❤️ Thomas Merton and Teilhard.

Some of our sisters and associates gathered today to share in a labyrinth walk or tracing the labyrinth with our fingers and contemplative prayer. The theme was finding ways to seek unity in the days ahead. It was good to be together.

New York Historical Society’s exhibit on Robert Caro’s “The Powerbroker” is so worth your time. And go up to the 4th floor to see the gorgeous Tiffany lamps.
