SUMMARY:Guest Speaker\, International Thomas Merton Society\, CT Chapter
DESCRIPTION:JOIN US FOR A SPECIAL EVENING WITH SOPHFRONIA SCOTT AS SHE REFLECTS ON HER NEW BOOK ON THOMAS MERTON\, AVAILABLE ON MARCH 16\, 2021! \nTHIS ZOOM EVENT WILL BE ON  WEDNESDAY\, APRIL 14\, 2021 FROM 7:00 P.M. TO 9:00 P.M. EASTERN TIME \nSEE DETAILS AND REGISTER HERE. \n​The Humanity of Thomas Merton and the Key to Grace for an Impossible World\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n​The Thomas Merton who lived as a contemplative monk studying\, writing\, and praying was also a man who could be impatient\, rambunctious\, charming\, deceptive\, in pain and in love. In other words\, he was completely human and in the vulnerability of that messy humanity he most felt the grace of God. That humanity can take Merton beyond the realm of mystic/saint\, making him more accessible to us so that through him we may learn how to reach for God in the midst of our own imperfections. Author Sophfronia Scott considers this connection and\, recognizing that so many of the issues of Merton’s time (race\, peace\, ambition\, materialism\, love) are\, sometimes frustratingly so\, still our issues today\, will discuss how Merton’s work helps us to see through a lens of grace\, allowing us to love the impossible world even as we seek to redeem it.

SUMMARY:Spark My Muse Book Club Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Register here for this discussion led by Lisa Colon Delay. \nWhat if we truly belong to each other? What if we are all walking around shining like the sun? \nMystic\, monk\, and activist Thomas Merton asked those questions in the twentieth century. Writer Sophfronia Scott is asking them today. \nIn The Seeker and the Monk\, Scott mines the extensive private journals of one of the most influential contemplative thinkers of the past for guidance on how to live in these fraught times. \nAs a Black woman who is not Catholic\, Scott both learns from and pushes back against Merton\, holding spirited\, and intimate conversations on race\, ambition\, faith\, activism\, nature\, prayer\, friendship\, and love. She asks: What is the connection between contemplation and action? Is there ever such a thing as a wrong answer to a spiritual question? How do we care about the brutality in the world while not becoming overwhelmed by it? \nBy engaging in this lively discourse\, readers will gain a steady sense of how to dwell more deeply within–and even to love–this despairing and radiant world. \nSophfronia Scott is a novelist\, essayist\, and leading contemplative thinker whose work has appeared in Time\, People\, O: The Oprah Magazine\, and numerous other outlets. When her first novel\, All I Need to Get By\, was published\, she was nominated for best new author at the African American Literary Awards and hailed by Henry Louis Gates Jr. as “one of the best writers of her generation.” Her other books include Unforgivable Love\, Love’s Long Line\, and This Child of Faith. Scott holds degrees from Harvard and the Vermont College of Fine Arts. She lives in Sandy Hook\, Connecticut. \nAsk questions of the author\, discuss the material\, find out more about Thomas Merton and the book “The Seeker and the Monk” during our time together.

SUMMARY:Madeleine L'Engle Conference: Walking on Water\, All Angels' Church\, New York\, NY
DESCRIPTION:“In art we are once again able to do all the things we have forgotten; we are able to walk on water; we speak to the angels who call us; we move\, unfettered\, among the stars.” Madeleine L’Engle\, Walking on Water: Reflections on Faith and Art \nIn celebration of Madeleine L’Engle’s centenary year\, this inaugural conference brings together a diverse group of artists and seekers to explore\, challenge\, and deepen our creative lives. Just as Madeleine spoke fluently across boundaries that frequently divide us\, the conference features speakers and welcomes attendees who are guided by the desire to ask questions rather than prescribe answers. The conference has a combination of keynote addresses\, panel discussions\, and workshops that will be of interest to people across faith traditions who are interested how faith and art inform each other. There will also be sessions on the works and influence of Madeleine L’Engle\, and opportunities for alumni/ae of her workshops to reunite and share stories. \nSophfronia will teach a breakout session at 2:15pm on Saturday entitled “Feeding the Lake: A Journaling Workshop.”
