Prayer in Motion, LLC Newsletter
August 8, 2004

Dear Family and Friends,

It’s hard to believe that Prayer in Motion, LLC just celebrated its 1 year anniversary on July 29, 2004! Many, many thanks for all of your support through prayers, encouraging words, contacts and gifts of your time, talent and resources that have carried me through this past year. It has been truly a grace filled time for me.

After a wonderful, peace filled retreat at the end of June, life seems to have picked up an even busier pace than before I left. Hard to believe, I know! Since returning home I have had a number of programs booked for this fall as well as a few dates I was asked to hold for next year! First and foremost is a talk I am doing this coming Tuesday, August 10^th for the St. Francis Theology on Tap series at Conor O’Neill’s in downtown Ann Arbor. I will be sharing my faith story and inviting those present to see where God might be calling them in their journey. Also coming up is a program I am doing for parish nurses through the St. John’s Health System on August 17^th. This will be an opportunity for marketing as well as teaching Prayer in Motion. I’ve added a couple of programs to October, spending mornings with the St. Columban’s women’s group and at the Cottage Retreat Center in Jackson. In November I will be working with the early childhood group at St. Blase teaching prayer through movement to three, four and five year olds and their parents. I am really looking forward to the little ones’ freedom and energy.

In addition to my marketing efforts I’ve been putting together income and expense statements for the past year and preparing to have my taxes done. While I am not yet covering my expenses I am pleased by a steady upward trend. I have been fortunate to secure some part time work with The Phoenix Ensemble and its Executive Director that has helped to fill the gaps this summer. Check out their website at www.phoenixensemble.com

I continue to struggle with vertigo, now in my eighth month. Some days are worse than others but I have been fortunate to be able to keep moving. I have an appointment with a chiropractor that is also a nutritionist so I am hopeful he will shed some light on things.

As I look back on this past year I can see so many ways that God has been present in my life, in my work and play and most of all through all of you. Thank you!

Prayer in Motion…Let the Spirit move you!
