Inner Journey with Soul Collage, September 24, 2011
"Thanks so much for such a cozy, peaceful, and nourishing place. In just 24 hours I feel refreshed, inspired and ready to face the world. I highly recommend "Soul Collage" to all who want to look inward and outward for a deeper understanding of themselves. Plus, it's darn good fun! Joan and Donna create a safe, healing and challenging space for personal growth and connection with other explorers of the body, mind, and spirit."

Ignatian Exercises
The Ignatian Exercises profoundly developed my prayer life. I learned a new vocabulary to describe my relationship with Jesus, and I leaned the discipline required to examine my daily prayer life. I discovered how prayer could enhance my life and what forms of prayer resonate with me (as well as what forms of prayer do not!). Overall, Sr. Connie Messitt was a tremendous spiritual director throughout this experience, and I would highly recommend her to anyone considering the Ignatian Exercises. - RN
