Adoration

Kim Steinberg and her husband, Si, live in the small high desert city of Boise, Idaho. Kim enjoys tromping through the foothills, walking by the river, and traveling to places unknown. Kim lost her oldest son, Kieran, January 20, 2023 - and attended her first Sacred Sorrows retreat in February 2025.

we are all bowed down

we are all brought to our knees

the names of our beloved children

held in the candlelight

oh, Lord, hear our plea

whispered prayers

holy tears

sacred ground at this hallowed hour

we are gathered in and emptied out

one writes

one weeps

one sleeps

golden circles of adoration

Christ at the center

peace descending

no beginning, no end

and You, who make all things new

are here in this room on this night
