It's a place that grounds you and brings you back to reality a little in the midst of so much noise and things going on. It feels surreal.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329918 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329922 Some thin places for me are not necessarily specific places. For example, me and my family traveled to Virginia in the fall, and being in the car and looking out at the landscape was a moment for me where I could be alone with my thoughts. Another example is in my parish St. Brendan. Whenever I am there, I am able to reflect on myself and make myself a better person then when I walked in.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329922 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329927 Thin places for me are places where I can see God's creation. For example seeing the sunset at the top of a hill and seeing all of the different colors, or driving through the mountains and looking down at the landscape. Also places where I can sit alone in peace with my own thoughts. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329927 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329931 Thin places for me are places where I can see God's magnificence in the Earth. For example, when I went to the Grand Canyon, I was stunned. I saw a new side of the world that I had never seen before. Places like these make me think and reflect. In these places, God really sends a message and strikes my heart. A local thin place would be when I am singing at a Mass at my parish. I feel connected to the church and God when I do this. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329931 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329935 When I think of a thin place, a place between our world and heaven, I think of St. Brigid of Kildare church. It's a place I have been going throughout my childhood and I have always held a sacred respect and silence there. I also used to be a funeral alter server there and have been at multiple funerals at St. Brigid.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329935 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329940 Thin places for me are when I go on vacation with my family and we go to the beach. Just seeing what God created with the calm waves and ocean life. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329940 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329947 a thin place for me is somewhere i can relax and think about my day and things i have going on, or looking forward too.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329947 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329952 A thin place for me is out in the woods. When I'm in the woods, I lose sight of all the stresses of life and just focus on nature.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329952 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329958 A thing place for me would probably be somewhere like my room or some place that I am by myself.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329958 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329962 a thin place for me would be like my room. like im all alone in there and its quiet and peaceful with no outside distractions. or the park with the buffalo thats a nice spot for quiet and peace.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329962 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329966 A thin place for me is a beach at sunset. All the colors reflecting off the water and the waves slowly washing onto the shore. You can just relax and not think about anything else.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329966 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329970 A thin place for me is a park, but specifically in the middle of the night. At 3am, it is very dark and there are no people around so no other distractions. Rooftops are also thin places for me because you're separated from everyone else but you can still see each other, and it's just very peaceful. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329970 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329974 A thin place for me is when I was in South Dakota and just driving and see miles away because its so flat I felt very close to God because I was close to nature.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329974 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329979 a thin place for me would be the night of thanksgiving after everyone is done eating and taking naps but we are all still just there together. It relaxing but also fun and a great energy is there.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329979 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329983 A thin place for me is where I can see God. I believe my car is a place where I can relax and talk to God.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329983 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329989 Thin places for me aren't always a specific place but sometimes a certain experience. Like seeing a really cool sunset or the stars and knowing that they are God's creation. It's very peaceful and amazing to experience those things.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329989 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329995 I think a thin place for me is my grandparents house because I'm just with my family and it is very relaxing. It is also in the country so there's not much noise from other people so it is very comforting and calm.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115329995 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115330004 For me Damascus is a thin place. The auditorium there especially because it is were I first met/encountered Jesus. Also another thin place for me is anywhere by a body of water, especially at the beach. Seeing the sunrise over the ocean or taking in the stillness and beauty of a body of water is really refreshing and it reminds me how beautiful God is.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:19 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115330004 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115330012 For me a thin place would be somewhere like my room or car because you can just be by yourself and think.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:19 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115330012 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115330017 A thin lace for me would be my car because I'm usually alone in there and I just listen to music. It's usually super chill and I'm just vibin. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:19 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/dfmnyz0dypi99l9x1617313273/wish/1115330017
