​"The one who dreamed the universe loved circles. There is some strange way in which everything that goes forward is somehow still traveling within the embrace of the circle. Longing and belonging are fused within the circle. The mind is a circle, too. This is what keeps you gathered in yourself. Yet the circle of the mind is broken somewhere. This fracture is always open; it is the secret well from which all longing flows. All prayer, love, creativity, and joy come from this source.”

About Kelley

Hi I'm Kelley.  I'm an artist and a teacher by profession, but in all things, I've always been a seeker.  Someone who asks big questions.  BIG questions.  The Dinty Moore Beef Stew like questions - rich and thick kinda questions.  Where did I come from?  What is my purpose?  Who am I really? Is there order, meaning to existence?  What are the sacred stories and how do they get distorted by the stories we tell ourselves?   

Then most importantly,  how do our answers to these questions drive us towards the action to love better?  Read More

What is Spiritual Direction?

" The practice of Spiritual Direction inspires people to experience authenticity in their lives as they connect with and explore the ground of all being, that deepest of truths which is beyond life and death, and goes by many names, including God, and no name at all." (from sdiworld.org)
​
How do we discern the vibrant hum of the Divine presence within us?  

We show up in solitude.
We breathe deeply into silence.
We slow down into stillness.

And where do we begin? With our own sacred stories.   Learn More

Testimonial:

"As a gay woman who was raised a United Methodist, and as an adult explored Buddhism and Judaism, church has been a complicated place for me, especially with the recent convention debating whether or not the denomination condemns my soul or not for loving my trans/non-binary partner. Having a mentor to explore the sacred with who is completely receptive, loving to me, and supportive of my spirit has been incredibly healing."
