"Beloved, let us love one another.  For love is of God
and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.
  He that loves not, knows not God, for God is love."  I John 4:7-8

Welcome to a quiet little corner of cyberspace!  Here you'll find some links to various topics of interest to me.   What you will NOT find here is hatred, prejudice or condemnation as my Deity is one of Love and Compassion.  I enjoy intelligent, reasoned discussion of world religions and questions of faith.  After all, my Deity's Son died to take away sin, NOT the ability to Reason.  :)

A Bit About My Faith

I am an Episcopalian, which means I'm a member of the Episcopal Church in the USA, a part of the worldwide Anglican Communion.  I am an open-minded moderate who finds most of the histrionics of the more extreme factions in our Church, both far left and far right, to be disturbing and, IMHO, not very Christ-like!

Being of Irish, Scottish, Welsh and Manx descent, I have found my own spirituality to have been greatly enriched by explorations of Celtic Christianity.

As member of the Third Order, Society of St. Francis, Anglican, I am interested in a Franciscan view of spirituality and service to humanity as bringers of peace, tolerance, understanding, and God's love to a hurting world.

I am a physics teacher who is presently staying home with my young son. Eventually I plan on pursuing graduate work in physics. Great is the joy that can be found in exploring God's magnificent creation!

I am female, which leads me to explore both the historic contributions of women to our faith, from Julian of Norwich to Clare of Assisi to Bridget of Ireland as well as the feminine imagery inherent in certain characterizations of the Holy Spirit!
