Hi everyone, I wanted to let you know that, after 29 weeks by my counting, I’ll be taking a hiatus from the weekly Revelation newsletters for a little while.

Mark, I appreciate your words each week. Revelation is tolerable with your help. i did get and read "See no Stranger" Wow! Thanks for the suggestion. I had just read Caste before that. am 82 and a De La Salle Christian Brother (Roman Catholic Lay-Religious). I am a live-in volunteer at our nursing home in Lincroft,, NJ. I'm still a help!

I am a 40 year novice of centering prayer and find my' contemplative sit' extending since the pandemic and my retirement. I am loving spring. I originally am from Blackinton MA and many of my relatives worked at Williams College. My aunt Catherine Winn was the Assistant Registrar. She never worked anywhere else. I'm a 'mountain man.' My last ministry was facilitating a small retreat house in Narragansett, RI. Thanks for your 'Ordinary Mystic' thoughts. I look forward to whatever is next! your brother, John McMahon
