Slammed Toward Hope
Good day, snatched away,Power, lights, flicker, out, on.My brain short-circuits.Planet TBI,Harsh, cruel, unrelenting. Lost.Yet hope remains, deep.Hidden treasure, light.Gift wrapped in darkness. Behold!Held in God’s embrace.What matter, my lack,When abundence abounds ‘round?Lift my soul above.Sanctuary ofGod’s beloved embrace,Shelter from the storm.

Slammed Toward Hope

Good day, snatched away,Power, lights, flicker, out, on.My brain short-circuits.
Planet TBI,Harsh, cruel, unrelenting. Lost.Yet hope remains, deep.
Hidden treasure, light.Gift wrapped in darkness. Behold!Held in God’s embrace.
What matter, my lack,When abundence abounds ‘round?Lift my soul above.
Sanctuary ofGod’s beloved embrace,Shelter from the storm.

Gentle dawn on high, wake my cold soul from slumber. Dove’s song on the breeze.

What types of things will appear here?

Well, we’re Catholic. We homeschool. Patrick’s a deacon. We love God’s creation. So that’s what will be making appearances here. You’ll get to know us a wee bit and we’ll get to express ourselves. Perhaps we’ll even set you up with some van inserts. Grin. 

What is CampYourVan?

It’s a better way to camp. You already own a van (at least if you’re like many families). CampYourVan is a way to convert your existing van into a camping van, and then return it to regular van status when you get back.

Simple. Easy. Cook from your van. Sleep in your van (up to 2 adults and 1-2 kids depending on size). If you have more folks, bring the tent.

Gone will be the days of lugging all the kitchen stuff and sleeping stuff out and back.

We’re currently designing the prototype. Watch here to stay posted. Or follow us via RSS feed (click on the RSS in your browser address window). 

Ahhhh. The great outdoors. And summer makes us yearn for cool mountain nights. A day of hiking, or simply relaxing in a flowered meadow. Brats and dogs roasted over the open fire.

Let’s get out and camp! However you do it. Enjoy God’s creation and rediscover stillness in your soul.
