Convivium - the distinct pleasure of sharing good food with good people.
Breaking bread together, even if it is just some whole wheat toast, has a sacramental element. We weave ourselves together when we recognize our need for one another and for the plants and animals that provide us with energy to live.
Come join us - fill your belly, give thanks and create community!
This Thursday is family night and you are invited for dinner! All are welcome. Call us to let us know if you can make it - 713-226-7748.

I slept but my heart was awake
Sleeplessness. Have you experienced it?
I have, that is why I am here, right now updating the blog.
What is at the root of it? An unquiet mind, hungry for activity, filled with worry instead of prayer.
Or is it something else?
Song of Songs, somewhere in chapter five - "I slept, but my heart was awake....Daughters of Jerusalem, I implore you by the does and by the powers of the field, if you see my love, what shall you tell Him? Tell Him I am wounded with love."
Our loving and compassionate Savior - the Lover of our Souls - does He wound us? Does He heal us? Does He heal us through our wounds?
Yes. Yes. and Yes.
Good night.
