SUMMARY:Writing as a Spiritual Practice
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Merton’s first—and one of his most famous—books is his spiritual autobiography\, The Seven Storey Mountain. Since his death\, many books have been published as compilations of\, or based upon\, the volumes of journals that he left behind.  \nJoin us as ELPC member Dr. Brent House explores with us this practice of spiritual journaling and memoir writing as a way to draw nearer to ourselves and to God.  \nA light lunch will be served. \nDr. House is a professor of Creative Writing at California University of Pennsylvania. \nAbout Thomas Merton\nThomas Merton was an American Catholic writer and mystic. A Trappist monk\, he was a poet\, social activist\, and pioneer of Interfaith Dialogue. Merton wrote more than 70 books—mostly on spirituality\, social justice\, and a quiet pacifism—as well as essays\, reviews\, and voluminous journals. Among Merton’s most enduring works is his best-selling\, spiritual autobiography\, The Seven Storey Mountain (1948)\, which appears on National Review’s list of the 100 best non-fiction books of the 20th century. He has been an inspiration to millions.

DESCRIPTION:NO tricks and NO treats\,  but lots of fun dressing up for classes and private lessons on Halloween. \nThis is a dress-up day so use your imagination and come in your favorite costume. Keep it G-rated for all of the little ones (nothing scary\, bloody\, violent\, suggestive or adult-themed); and make sure you can move easily and safely (no boots\, flip flops\, bare feet\, or masks that obstruct vision). \nWe will have a photographer here to take photos of everyone and the teaching artists will incorporate your characters into the lessons for the day. \nPlease note: There will be an event on Penn Avenue and Highland Avenue will be blocked off to just before the circle driveway. Give yourselves enough time to navigate around the roadblock.
