Pray The News

I found a website this morning that I'd like to pass on. It's www.praythenews.com, and is the site for a group of Camelite Sisters in Indianapolis, IN. First off, the design is wonderful. (That is always sure to get my attention.) Secondly, they offer a very nice window into their daily lives, and themselves as individuals and Sisters. These are real wome, with full, active (if cloistered) lives. There is also a nice history of their monestary and Carmelite Rule as well.

However, I really liked their School of Prayer, and thought you guys might be interested as well. They have a nice section guiding their internet visitors on a series of mediatations concerning God's Gift of Time. (I think the topic may change from time to time.) The focus is on working towards mindfullness, in daily life as well as prayer.

One quote I appreciated was, "Try to see God in the interruptions of a day." It was a lesson I learned while at Journey's End. The "official" design work I was doing what was not important, it was being there for the people I'd promised to serve- that is, the refugees themselves. They had many other great ideas towards a more peaceful day.

Enjoy!
