We all know what it is to be afraid. Yet God’s voice in the Gospel is constant, “Do not be afraid,” “Fear not.” It is our hope that these reflections will help each of us hear and believe those words urging us to replace fear with an acknowledgment of God’s loving presence and will expand our capacity for compassion.

Cloud Crossings is the third book of poems that
Sr. Alice Feeley, RDC has recently published.
This new set of poetry lightly touches upon various mainstays of Sister's life, but mainly speaks to her frequent visits to the natural and restored life at Wild Farm, an extensive farmland abutting the lush state forest in Danby, New York.
Inspired by something her dear friend asked Sr. Alice the day before she passed away, the book is a collection of Sr. Alice’s poems written over a period of time, and often reflective of questions that creep into our ordinary lives as we make our way in the day’s challenging climate.
Alice Feeley was Poet Laureate for the Town of Greenburgh some years ago and had composed a poem about 9/11 honoring local residents at a ceremonial dedication of a wall in their honor.

in great grandfather’s garden...
