Across cultures and time humans have made offerings to their spirit worlds. These "prayers" take many forms: alters, candles, charms, incantations, performative acts, sacrifices. They are requests for healing, protection and forgiveness; and embody hopes of connection to the miracles of sacred forces beyond the everyday.

In the series Milagros for Times Like These, incantations and charms are offered to ancient sources of wisdom, seeking transformation—restoration and healing—from the effects of current destructive human practices.
