    "This week we prayed the collect for All Saints' Day and were joined by special guest, the Rev. Hillary Raining to discuss confession and reconciliation.

  • The Iconography of Saint Gobnait
    Enjoy this great interview with The Hive's Artist in Residence and Iconographer, Kristen Wheeler, as she discusses her process of creating the icon of Saint Gobnait, the Patron Saint of Beekeepers and Ironworkers. 
      "Gobnait was called to Ballyvourney to build a convent, a place of refuge and healing where she and other women cared for the sick and suffering of the village, saving many from the oncoming plague. With natural remedies made of honey and herbs, and a considerable dose of commitment to helping those in need, Gobnait surrounded herself in apiaries, gardens, trees, wildlife, and supportive people to furnish her ministry."

  • Prioritizing Mental & Physical Health

    In this season opener, Hillary and Ken share important updates from The Hive and weigh-in on U.S.A. Olympian, Simone Biles, and her decision to step out of the competition to protect her health. 

    "The thing we will remember from this Olympics is that someone didn't compete-- that they put their mental health first.
    Even much more so than if they had gone out and swept all the medals like they've done before."
