Dan’s Prayers Live on in Berrigan’s Folly: A Place of Respite for Resistance.
A year ago, we reached out asking for support to rehab Daniel Berrigan’s favorite place for respite- Folly cottage near Nelson Lodge at Kirkridge. We are so grateful to all those who supported this project to make it happen.
Join us for a celebration on zoom where we will share stories from this important legacy at Kirkridge. We will also share visions and dreams for the future of this little cottage. That evening we will release Berrigan’s Folly Program to provide free space to ensure frontline activists can find rest for the days ahead.
Join us in celebrating and support this work!
