[Women] Pray flags for the goddess altar in the courtyard.

Sun Jul 26 19:25:37 CDT 2020

What has worked best for meditation and the Goddess class is that Kat sends
out an email just before the time to start. Sayingplease join the Zoom
meeting already in session that has the correct info.  It seems to be the
easiest.  No numbers and no passwords it just pops up.  You have to have
the zoom program or app or whatever.

>>> 2. Fold the top down on each piece of fabric, stitch in place to create

>>> 3. Paint, stitch, applique, or collage the flags.
>>>
>>> 4. Add words, journaling, or symbols as desired.
>>>
>>> 5. Thread the flags onto a string/ cord and hang them outdoors so the
>>> breeze will catch them and spread your intentions.
>>>
>>> Make a flag every day, once a month, or just when the spirit moves you.
>>>
>>> Any questions let me know.  Hope to see some prayer flags.
