Trauma Healing Course in Puerto Rico
Dear Friends and Family:
I have had the privilege of spending the last two weeks visiting the beautiful island of Puerto Rico. What a joy it has been to share with sisters and brothers from the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Puerto Rico. Here are some picture for you to get a taste of the blessings.

On the eve before I travel
Dear Friends and Family:
Tonight I am preparing the final details before leaving to the airport tomorrow. Pastora Vivivna and I will be traveling first to Puerto Rico. There Pastora Beverly will join us and we will be co-facilitating the Roots in the Ruins: Hope in Trauma level one course at the Morton Camp. Then I will be traveling on by myself - throughout northern Mexico with a quick side trip to Nicaragua to visit Magyolene Rodríguez who is volunteering with Misión Cristiana through Global Ministries and the Pentecostal Church of Chile.
I request that you please pray for the Shalom Center during the coming months. Things have been rather chaotic due to transitions, but I hope that the board will soon get itself upright again. The staff and Pastora Viviana are hard at work preparing for the summer camps as well as a good many retreats this spring (October - December). Please pray for protection, patience and joy as I travel and facilitate trauma healing, conflict transformation, and environmental education courses and workshops.
I will write whenever I can!

On the path to Shalom
Have you felt wind in leaves moving trees?
River crashing down mountain to sea?
Woodpecker hammering hollow bass?
Hummingbird zooming, pricking pink fucsia flowers
over stumbling stream?
Mountain crumbling in earthquake
Leaves crunching underfoot?
Song of thanksgiving on teen lips,
Heart creaking open to the Sound Maker?
When you can hear all this
Then you are on the path to shalom.
