On Pentecost Sunday, 23May2010, The Thomas Merton Bookshed Retreat was dedicated.
We sign wall which will be shingled, obscuring our names
.
We leave prayers and thoughts in stones with silence.
We listen to words and music.
What is done here is itself...
A practice of contemplation, zen, and engaged service.
We honor Thomas Merton. And thank him.
(Thomas Merton portrait by Jim Nally)
Everything returns to Itself.
Embodying the dwelling place of the Alone;
Stepping aside to make room for Another
(meetingbrook motto)
