About Patrice

I’m a writer who traces the places where God’s story meets our story — in scripture, in the inner life, and in the quiet, unfolding rhythm of ordinary days.

I write to listen.
I write to tell the truth about the soul.
I write to make room.
I write as someone listening for God.
I write to hold a sanctuary—through story, silence, and attention.

My work lives at the intersection of story and Spirit.
Sometimes that takes the shape of a reflection.
Sometimes a character’s voice.
Sometimes a gentle piece of soulwork.
All of it flows from a contemplative way of seeing the world.

I’m trained in theology, creative writing, and spiritual formation, and I serve as Associate Minister of Spiritual Formation and Creative Practice at Convergence — a community for artists of faith and creator of soul|makers. These experiences shape me, but what guides my writing most is a longing to know, love, and follow Christ.

If you feel at home in that kind of space, I’m grateful our paths have crossed.

Food for Thought

Stillness is Holy.

Stillness is Revolutionary.

The life of holy listening is not just for monks.

It’s for all of us.
