    Fire and Ice: telling my story…

    ByThe Rev. Allison Burns-Lagreca, MDiv. February 10, 2018February 10, 2018

    Story, we’re encouraged to tell our story. In the Episcopal Diocese of New Jersey, the theme for the last few years has been, “Know Your Story, Live it Boldly.” It’s not at all that unique to the diocese as the greater Church itself has a link on their main website to storytelling encouraging people to…

    Will you strive for justice and peace among all people, and respect the dignity of every human being?

    ByThe Rev. Allison Burns-Lagreca, MDiv. February 3, 2018February 4, 2018

    Jerusalem living in me… ( yup, a kinda final reflection)

    ByThe Rev. Allison Burns-Lagreca, MDiv. February 1, 2018February 3, 2018

    Yes, I did just title this “A Kinda Final Reflection.” Jerusalem, the Holy Land lives within side of me as a transformative subtle haunting, calling me back yet illuminating so much of all that makes up me. I feel myself as clay being morphed and molded in the hands of God’s gentle imprints as cliché…

    Journey to Jericho and onward…

    ByThe Rev. Allison Burns-Lagreca, MDiv. January 13, 2018January 13, 2018

    Tiberias to Nazareth and now on our way to Jericho, down the Jordan and eventually the Dead Sea. What a journey! Yesterday we began our day in Zippori ( Sepphoris ) where I wept when I heard the Song of Ascents Psalm 121 sung in Hebrew. Perhaps it was hearing the words of the psalm…

    The Home of Jesus

    ByThe Rev. Allison Burns-Lagreca, MDiv. January 13, 2018January 13, 2018

    I began writing from the van yesterday morning as we began our day making our way from Tiberias to Nazareth where we met with the Sisters of Nazareth. This is a journey away from tourism and straight to an active archeological site in which we had the privilege to be invited. I am so very…

    ByThe Rev. Allison Burns-Lagreca, MDiv. January 11, 2018January 11, 2018

    Last night we stayed in Tiberias. We will be here another two nights before moving onward. I am having some internet connection issues here so I have been trying to blog from our van off of my phone. Yes, believe it or not we have good WiFi on the van, but we were so busy…

    “Let us come alive to the Splendor that is all around us, and see the beauty in ordinary things.” Thomas Merton After a wild trip through JFK airport, a one hour delay and a 10 hour flight squished like sardines with some really awesome food, we arrived at the Leonardo Plaza in Netanya.
