Autumn McClintock

Of Spirit and place Autumn writes: "Pine Creek Valley, a rural mountainous swath of north-central Pennsylvania, is my sacred ground. I spent summers there as a small child and learned to love creeks, mushrooms, moss, and ferns. As an adult, my communion with God comes most naturally and abundantly in woods and forests – anywhere I can be among trees is a place for thanksgiving."
