Eastertide · White
A rule. A rhythm.
A life with God.
Christ is risen. Alleluia. Come in from the road and sit by the hearth. Here, in the quiet of weathered stone and creeping ivy, learn the slow rhythms of prayer, the disciplines, and a life quietly hidden in Christ.
A word from the elder
“Mary did not recognize him in the garden until he spoke her name. Listen — he is still naming his own.”
— Rev. Chris Roth, on Easter morning
The threefold pattern
Up · In · Out
A whole life: turned toward God, knit into His Body, sent into His world.
Up
Toward God — prayer, sacrament, Scripture, silence.
In
Within the Body — fellowship, accountability, embodied health.
Out
Toward the world — mission, mercy, witness, work.
