Word Made Flesh is a contemplative community. One of the ways that we contemplate what God is doing in the world and in our lives is through the reflection articles that we write. We invite you to read, learn, and celebrate with us.

Dear Friends, Happy New Year! Last month our WMF children's home in Chennai, India had a couple surprise visitors-a little 4-year-old girl named Mary and a her 5-year-old brother Joseph.

Lost Wallet, New Glasses
The other day, a completely normal thing happened. I lost my wallet. I was hurrying up from La Paz at night, carrying two grocery bags and my backpack, the one with the dysfunctional zipper, slung over my shoulder. As I hopped out to change buses, it started raining like a lost monsoon. I ran for…
