A Letter from Bill
You’re invited! In this letter, Bill shares about the formation of the Coracle Community, our Sunday gatherings, and ways to connect.
In the Boat Together
Read about Coracle’s mission, vision, and values + how they relate to this community.
Perspectives
In the interest of transparency, Bill shares this personal reflection on some of his current perspectives that relate to the formation of the Coracle Community.
A Common Way
Some in our community choose to practice A Common Way, Coracle’s expression of a way of life together that makes the wisdom and practices of the monastic tradition accessible to normal people in the modern world in the concrete circumstances and constraints of our daily lives to which God has called us.
Conversations with trusted friends
Looking for other ways to connect?
If a community is to be ablaze with visible power and love, it will be because some of us are personally aflame.
