Words cannot describe – CD

Come here often to try to wrap my head and heart around the coming death of my wife of almost 50 years. She is an angel to our grandchild and stronger than me. My tears fall here because I have to be strong for her at the end, even if I’m not. Thank God for you and this place to let me gather strength. –Dan

I came here this morning needing to leave some things behind, not sure what I would find. This space is beautiful. This place is a gift. I came with my spirit agitated, fearful and worn down, tired from keeping up, tired from taking care of everyone but myself. But as I finish this journey through aspen groves, pine forests and fields of wild flowers, I leave refreshed. I feel renewed and grateful and I take this gratefulness with me to share with others. –Beth A from Bismark, ND

Walking up the hill today with a longtime acquaintance, now spiritual friend, the chimes rang out through the hills. The breeze picked up as if God was sending us a secret…from my dad. When chimes ring…it’s my dad calling out. Thank you for giving his spirit a place to be free. -Danita H.

I am dazzled by the beauty and spirituality you are infusing into an already beautiful and spiritual place! – Lucinda T.
