A Gathering of Spirits



“Jan Richardson’s ‘A Gathering of Spirits’ evokes the thin place in the landscape of the Christian year when heaven and earth meet and we remember that what holds us together is not limited by time. At All Saints Day we stand together not only with those who are physically present with us but also with those who linger close in spirit. She writes of creating the collage: ‘With every piece, another prayer; with every layer, another memory of those who have passed through the thin, thin place. Remember how their presence lingers. A communion of saints, say, to sustain us when the way grows daunting. Or call it this: a gathering of spirits.’”
