Rosemerry takes on the angels
Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer, erstwhile new blogger on the Virtual Tea House has published a handsome book, just in time for Christmas.
Celebration: More Christmas Angels
Available from Amazon.com or Red Rock Press
Amazon Editorial Review: This brief, delightful history of Christmastime angels looks at the depiction of their gossamer loveliness--from their halos to the tips of their wings and rich, flowing robes--on old holiday cards, and considers, too, both their musical assignments and their practical seasonal tasks. Any busy person who could use a personal angel to help prepare for Christmas will love this book.
I haven't gotten a copy of the book yet, but I plan on doing so, post haste!

About Beth Patterson
The Virtual Tea House website became 'word-ripe' when, over a cup of jasmine green, I realized that the web has an expanding part to play in the communal aspects of spiritual growth.
One of my favorite hats, among several is: initiated firekeeper in the Sacred Fire Community. Hosting a monthly community fire circle, I'm being taught that the simple act of sitting around a fire with the intent of holding open-hearted space makes for some soulful community!
With a master's degree in religion, my career spans 20 years in end of life care and I currently work in the field of child abuse intervention and advocacy.
Here in beautiful Central Oregon, my spiritual homes of the high desert and the mountains are both in proximity. And for good measure, four hours away is Grandmother Ocean and the stunning Oregon Coast.
I'm making decent progress on the goal set by my mother early on: she taught us that the goal of humanity should be to become ever-more eccentric, i.e. more fully human.
Entering the 'forest-dweller' phase of life, I am honored to host the Virtual Tea House for all who wish to explore how our lives are enriched and made new a thousand times each day by the spirituality we embody. Exploring this engagement together is the purpose of the Virtual Tea House.
Welcome! Let's have a cup of virtual tea together and share what brings us joy, what we are being taught by life, how we are leaning into the Big Questions posed to us each day in sometimes 'distressing disguises'.
