The more we get together…

Something that I assumed as we started this new round of gatherings in Vancouver and Victoria is that you would all be interesting people who bring with you lifetimes of experience, and 165 other hours in your week with which to live, love and learn. I have not been disappointed! It has been great to see how on-location and online members alike are engaging in these topics in their everyday lives. We’ve been sent a few event notices, so I’m including them here in this blog post.  And I issue a challenge to others: Share an event here on the blog, along with what it means for you! Tell us what you do with other chunks of your precious time, and why? To invite those who are close enough to join you, and to inspire event greatness further afield. For example:

April 19th, Shawnigan Lake BC: “Re-Becoming Villagers! A Day with mark Lakeman”. $75 includes a day of sessions and a delicious lunch. Click here for more details.

May 8th, Victoria: “The Judgement Game: An Interactive Afternoon of Game Play to Launch a Book of Fiction on Crime and Punishment”. This event is free but reservations are necessary. Click here for more details.

 

Today’s the day!

Today’s the day! Last week the planning team met and hashed out a few details and ideas… and today Caring For All Creation begins. Those of you meeting in person in Vancouver and Victoria will soon be acquainted with Carmelle and Dittmar (on the right). Leslie (on left) and I, Tif (beside Les) will be cheering you on from sunny, cold Alberta.

You’ll notice a post regarding resources for the gatherings. Generally these will be posted after each week begins- following your exploration of the topic with the large group, and to support your work together in small groups. Feel free to comment and post about those resources and to share other articles, clips, etc. that you know of.

So let me be the next person to say: welcome! I’m glad you’re here, and I so look forward to learning with you this spring!
