When I Find Myself in Times of Trouble Mother Mary Comes to Me


About sixteen years ago I found myself in times of trouble, okay,  times a thousand it seemed. So much messy, unjust crap coming at me from all ends.  I actually shut Sweet Bird down and went about licking my wounds  and working on a resume for the first time in twenty years  One day I wandered into the garage where all my materials laid like a ship at the bottom of the sea. But yet, I sat down. Six hours later I emerged with a belt buckle, my first ever and on it, it said, "Release the Vision". I went in the house and threw the resumes away.
 This object became instantly a messenger from the mystery. Who even made this buckle? Why Mary? Why Release the Vision? I felt I had nothing left to give. At all. That accidental introduction to the eternal mother when I needed her most led me onto a spiritual path that I treasure to this day.
 It also led me on a thread of studying and writing about Mary, in part, thanks to Bev Donofrio, best selling author of Riding In Cars With Boys and Looking For Mary. The minute I met her in San Miguel, Mexico fifteen years ago, I knew I was divinely driven to work with her on my own quest of looking for Mary. I am still. And we became fast friends. And now, for the first time ever, I want to share her and our work together with you. Join us for a very one of a kind spiritual and creative journey back to our original Mother through writing, creating art and telling our stories of love, brokenness and coming back together in a strength greater than we can ever understand. 
"And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be". In a world gone mad these days, join us for community, creativity and connectivity to source.
Release the Vision,
Nancy and Bev
