About this title

Synopsis

We revel in the action of the holiday seasons, roasting our turkeys for Thanksgiving, trimming our tree and wrapping presents for Christmas, and hiding eggs and roasting hams for Easter. But life mostly happens in the in-between times that fill our days from holiday to holiday. In this book, Mary R. Hemmer reflects on "ordinary time," a word used by the church to mark the days between feast days. From her experiences as an Episcopal priest, chaplain, cook, author, and mom, she pulls out and examines the extraordinary in the ordinary. She invites her readers to join her in choosing not to miss the inspiring moments found in everyday life. By changing our lenses in small ways, we begin to see and then celebrate those things that make "average" days anything but.

About the Author

Mary R. Hemmer lives in northeast Georgia with her family, where she helps tend the family farm, writes for her blog prayerfulkitchen.substack.com, leads workshops and retreats, and guest preaches at area churches most Sundays. You can find her on most social media outlets by her handle @prayerfulkitchen. She has one other book available in print, "Phe and the Work of Death," written under the name Mary R. H. Demmler. She also contributed to the book "In the Beginning Was The Word: An Anthology," edited by Katerina Katsarka Whitley. She loves that no two days are alike for her, but hopes most of them find her in the kitchen, writing, or spending time with her three children-preferably all three!
