"...all I want to say to you is, "You are the Beloved," and all I hope is that you can hear these words as spoken to you with all the tenderness and force that love can hold.  My only desire is to make these words reverberate in every corner of your being--'You are the Beloved.'"   
                                              Henri Nouwen, from Life of the Beloved: Spiritual Living in a Secular World

To know yourself as Beloved. Is there anything more significant to your well-being than this?  A new year breaks open, and with it new opportunities to come home to yourself.  Take time in guided contemplative and creative reflection with others who share your deepest longing to hear, receive and know yourself as Beloved.  Henri Nouwen’s classic Life of the Beloved will gently guide a flow of quiet meditation and shared reflection, punctuated by invitations to express yourself, through writing or creative expression.
