While staying at the Notre Dame Spirituality Center in Ipswich, Massachusetts, I was struck by the beautiful stained glass in Our Lady Queen Chapel designed by Vincent De Paul Curran, SNDdeN (pictured here; trust me that my photo does not do it justice!). The glass depicts the scene from Revelation 22 with a glorious tree and river of life. In a time of ecological crises, this vision of our future with God is particularly poignant.

You can preview or purchase the piece here. It is set to a folk tune called THE LONE PILGRIM. You can find a beautiful version of the tune on Spotify here. This piece is also included in my collection Elemental Joy.
