January 29 – Meeting with the Lacey City Council
Priorywood Daycare closed. We sold our priory/high school complex to a Japanese university that took the name Lacey Pacific College and spent a year sharing the building with lively students. We then dispersed to numerous locations, living in “diaspora.”
Oct. 7 – Groundbreaking ceremonies for the construction of our third monastery were held.
