Grace Millennium presents a shifting paradigm in which the art, writings and shared experiences of Northern California women reveal the transformational power of grace in these challenging times.

GRACE MILLENNIUM is YOU. As an expansion of the vision begun over three years ago as Sojourn magazine, we are opening the door for greater participation both from our regional community and plenetwide.

Our theme of physical embodiment also includes stories about performance art, street theatre, martial arts, body art, forest activism of Cictercian nuns, and about the spiritual strength and inspiration of women living with multiple sclerosis, agoraphobia and the after-effects of near death experiences.

In this issue Moma De Louvre shares her art and lifelong career as artist / architect / musician / poet / financier. In devotion to the creative, she embraces all cultures and people, giving form to the energies she encounters in each place to which she is called.
