Annual Party 2023

The artist accepts the invitation to help us perceive the unknowable. Perhaps, like wind, the Spirit carries our work between heaven and earth, lets it live as a bridge between threads of that thin veil. Thus, we translate between glory and glory: both seen and unseen.

What are we waiting for? Jesus is coming. Let’s go and plant those trees.

We can have peace about long-range development on our land, realizing that God will see the work to completion in His time.

We sing Hosanna: Come. And He does–among us again.

Look at the birds of the air.

The Land Team is beginning to collect tools, farm implements, and work vehicles for the Abbey. Particularly, we'd like to have a used 4x4 farm truck. If you'd like to donate some of these items to the Abbey, help us purchase them, or know where we could acquire them, please notify Daniel at daniel@churchofthelamb.org.

Until we believe that God, who possesses perfect wisdom and perfect love, who knows everything about us there is to know and always has our very best interest in mind, whose every command and every invitation is meant to enhance us rather than diminish us, we will continue to suffer fruitless exhaustion.

Abbeys were of significant importance in medieval society. They were centers of learning, storehouses or repositories of cultural and literary treasures, economic engines, innovative centers of agriculture, places of refuge, solace and pilgrimage, and they performed a significant civic function of providing social safety nets in the form of food, shelter and clothing to the poor.

A running list of work opportunities at Church of the Lamb’s property will live here. They may be completed as you have time and energy, and we have something for everyone, regardless of age or ability. If you’re interested in participating in any of the tasks below, contact Daniel Zimmerman at daniel@churchofthelamb.org.

Few things are needed—or indeed only one.

It may, in fact, be rocket science.

A spiritual director does not replace the Holy Spirit and does not speak for Jesus. But they can walk with us down to the riverbank, help us put our tired, dusty feet in the water, and remind us what our thirst is for.

The redemption of humans must radiate out and include the restoration of the land and the animals. Cultivating our land and its inhabitants is integral to our Gospel witness.

On living and flourishing in an incomprehensible world.

These Lenten Devotionals follow the liturgy provided in the Book of Common Prayer (2019) for family worship in the early evening (p.71-72).

Christ’s constraint frees us from the crushing obligation to make choices that will lead to our highest flourishing, which in turn mitigates the anxiety that we may have chosen poorly.

We all seem to have places that we love, places that call to us and renew us.

“A stone does not meet its full potential until it is used for a church; a flower never reaches its full potential until it adorns and altar.” - Raphael Morales

The Lamb who was slain has begun His reign.
