O Lord, why did I make my robe with striped fabric?

Prayer Flags/Baltimore

A woman flips the pages of her scripture book at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.

Catholic tradition says this is the site where Christ was crucified. New evidence, largely considered only by protestants, instead suggests the site was actually outside the current walls of the Old City, near the garden tomb.

Mary's house is a holy site for both Christians and Muslims. The Muslims have a tradition of writing a prayer on a piece of paper or fabric and tying it onto something near a holy site.

during the winter months, 5 times a month, the women of this village pray to Tara, a tibetan goddess. this involves one day of only prayers, one day of no speaking and no eating and a final day of only prayers again. Each time a different woman in the village plays host. I was very lucky to be here when it happened - had never heard of it.

Mississippi College's prayer garden is a quiet place for the MC family & visitors to draw nearer to God. It is located just outside Alumni Hall.

This morning we received a call from my brother-in-law. My niece, Kenadie, has been having a major seizure. So far it has lasted more than an hour and she has been life-flighted to a major hospital. The plea is simple: Please, if you can spare a moment say a prayer for my niece. She will be three on the 19th.

This Prayer Flag is in honor of my twin-sister who is 'LivingStrong'.

I used a muslin foundation, leftover fabrics from the most-recent Traveling Turtle (you can read about the turtles on my blog). The pink silk was added to 'flow' behind the flag.

I've been fortunate enough to take time to spend with my sister, who lives across the country. This last visit was a long one, but it was supported by my very-caring husband... we considered the time away "time well spent". It wasn't end of my 2-month visit with my sister that we saw such a turn-around... seeing her back to doing things she likes to do such as cooking and taking walks was monumental.

God Bless her Healing!

Spent the day with the Dalai Lama in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Inspiring. Humbling. Tragically beautiful person. He's lost everything: close to a million of his people have been violently eradicated, his culture and traditions are being systematically erased; he cannot return home. If the Chinese government has its way, he will be the last Dalai Lama, ending perhaps a thousand years of living history. Yet, through all this, he continues to insist that we show loving kindness to all beings. Aging and frail - yet radiant, he travels the world with his welcoming words. "Everyone has the potential to find happiness - through altruism. Just be warm and loving toward each other." As we were leaving, His Holiness was walking off stage and the crowd was quiet with respect. From the back, as loud as she could, yelled a young child. "Good-Bye Dalai Lama!!" It wasn't disrespectful, it wasn't rude. It was the way she would call out to a favorite grandpa. He laughed out loud, turned around, big smile, clasped his hands in front of his heart and bowed to her. I couldn't help to think her words potentially prophetic or ironic and it made me ill. May the world know our Dalai Lama to be in good health for many years to come and may new generations be blessed with his incarnations so they too may be blessed with loving kindness. This is my prayer...

Each person in church this morning was given a coloured label and invited to write the name of someone they wished to pray for and hang it on this tree. This is before the service started - there were well over a hundred later. We were particularly asked to think of those who do not know Christ

Hymns are sung with various musical instruments used along with the traditional Buddhist gong. The sound and the silence both are appealing. Young monks conducts the afternoon prayer session.
