"The Guild community is supportive, understanding, and open to diverse spiritual views. I have never felt pressure to conform to someone else's beliefs here at the Guild. There is a freedom to converse openly with others and to express one's self spiritually and creatively that is not always typical of all faith-centered groups."
"It's wonderful to be around other artists in a safe place—amazing to be able to sit and dialogue about art and God and faith. There are not many places you can do that."
"Learning how to live in community has been wonderful. It is hard to find that opportunity."
"This is a unique and special place. I love the time I have here for reflection and for art."
"At the Guild I was given the gifts of time, encouragement, knowledge, friendship, faith and art. I hadn't realized how desperately I needed those things and couldn't have imagined how completely I would have all of those needs fulfilled."
"Thanks so much for all you did to make my experience this past weekend so wonderful. Your combined efforts, offered with care and grace, created a sense of hospitality that would rival that of the House of Elrond."
"The Guild feels like home."
