Sister Margaret - Had a wonderful experience with falling leaves. So beautiful. Wrote a poem about it. I couldn't help praising God for it.
(28:05) Karen - I take care of my parent's house. Live in an area with 100 plus year old trees.  Always in awe of landscaping and trees and mountains.  I feel like I'm in heaven there.
Lynn - I'm an artist. In exodus 35, it says he showed them wisdom and understanding....related to art and beauty from God.
Tony - In fall, the trees turn color.  They don't have to, but God thought of everything.  I reflect that every time I see the leaves.
Carol - Beauty through a song from the movie, The Mission.  Had a Catholic theme.  Song was in the film.  Bishop had a beautiful comment about the song.

(40:25) Linda - I have found the most beauty when I serve the poor and homeless.  The blessings and the things they do for each other and myself shows me God is at work through all our sisters and brothers.
