Sister Mary Margaret Funk

My name is Mary Margaret Funk, but most people call me Meg Funk. Since 1961 I have been a member of the Order of Saint Benedict at Our Lady of Grace Monastery in Beech Grove, Indiana. I have written books on Christian contemplative tradition, including Humility Matters, Thoughts Matter, and Tools Matter. My book Islam Is...
Lectio Matters, before the burning bush will be published by Continuum of London spring 2010.

This website is to be my virtual office to provide text and context for current writings.

Winter's spent

Winter's over

Meg: It seems that the snow is finally melting. We have only piles here and there at the edges of the parking lot and side of the roads.

Yet, the beauty that was here I need not forget, nor act as though the winter was never here. 40 days and nights were cold, wet, windy and wild.

Before spring comes I'll enjoy these gray days of in-between that I can pause and get back my breath.

Was a stunning season that passed through Indiana.

Lectio of Experience

Meg: When does the getting there stop? Is it on the other side? or somewhere in-between?
