Intentional Creativity is a dance between paint and prayer, music and meditation, pen and poetry or even prose. In this place the heart leads the hand in the silent whispering of our Muse. By reconnecting soul, purpose and desire, art is born. Your story is t old on canvas through paint and brush, through devotion and prayer.
– No previous art training or experience needed, we create from heart our story, giving form to abstract thought patterns.
– All materials provided: canvas, paint, brushes, everything needed to create art, even the tea and chocolate.
Your Muse, sometimes sweet and sometimes harsh, is beckoning. Are you brave enough to say “Yes”?
For as far back as she can remember, Elmari Van Der Westhuizen, born in South Africa and now living in Kansas City, has drawn, painted, read and written stories, and made music. After giving up corporate life, she embarked on the journey of an artist and intentional creativity teacher.
Through paint and canvas, journaling and yoga, she helps others remember their inner strength, inner wisdom and joy. Her classes work toward self-nurturing and rejuvenation.

An Assembling God’s Puzzle video
By Fr. Garry Richmeier, C.PP.S.
Blowing off steam about everything that is wrong in the world — and there’s plenty of that — can be therapeutic, but if such griping becomes the norm of our conversations and thinking, we can easily slip into cynicism, which is not helpful and doesn’t feel good.
Family Matters by Lucia Ferrara
Family time does not always mean going to Florida every summer; it means creating traditions and making connections that create lasting memories. And that can be done with your family with limited time and without breaking the bank.
