Introduction	I am a Catholic Worker living at the High Desert Catholic Worker on the southern edge of the Mojave Desert. At our house we offer retreats to other CW folk and those who, because of their ministry, can't afford to go to a regular retreat house. We are free to those who do the works of mercy. I have a Master's equivalent in Pastoral Studies, emphasis on Spiritual Direction, from Loyola University New Orleans. I am a Benedictine Oblate, and am working on bringing the Benedictine Charism back to the Catholic Worker movement. Dorothy Day was a Benedictine Oblate, and between her and Peter Maurin's experience of the Benedictine Monastic tradition, the Catholic Worker is profoundly Benedictine in spirit, although much more loosely organized. Our aim is Peace, to make a place where it is easier to be good. A place to listen with the ear of the heart.
Interests	social activism, giving retreats, work and prayer, learning, textile arts, and many other things, too numerous to mention
