Why “Chrism and Coffee?”

I believe that we can find great beauty and joy, and experience growth, equally through the extraordinary and mundane, through both sacramental experiences like being marked with holy chrism, AND the caffeine-fueled daily moments that both challenge and delight us. I believe that God works in all circumstances, whether sealed with sacramental power or marked by cold coffee stains. This newsletter is my attempt to share stories, lessons, and words on embracing growth in all seasons and circumstances.

What’s in the letters?

Once a month, you can expect the same structure and format: A short story, a few journaling prompts, a recipe, beautiful and/or thought-provoking words from other writers, and a short prayer or meditation.
