Welcome to
the Boat and Table Workshop
I welcome you to this website, and my ministry of spiritual direction, tinkering in the workshop, writing, hospitality, building and planting, hermit-ing, building community and faithful friendship.
Read thru the website to learn more about classes and offerings, spiritual direction, and the workshop from 2020-2025, and hopes and plans for coming years. I would be delighted to hear from you.
May you be drawn nearer the peace of God, tending earth,
in compassion for others as yourself,
learning and working with your own hands.
“…And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands…”
Paul’s First Letter to the Community at Thessalonica
Workshop Writing
Garden-Dog Mr. J reminds us
“Do not muzzle the ox
when he treadeth out the corn.”
Donate to the Workshop!
I hope to open the workshop back up this year for welcome and practice at build and planting toward the peace of God.
Your donation would help keep open the door to a well-organized workshop, time and space for solitary and shoulder-to-shoulder building projects, study, lessons, a small library of craft and mystical theology, dog treats, prayer, and excellent coffee breaks!
You can donate online at my collaborative ministry start:
You can also donate by check at the contact address.
(We’d also gladly accept eggs, cheese, fresh produce, sausage, sauerkraut, coffee, tea, aged virginia tobacco, and lumber!)
