Join us Monday November 18 at 6 PM as we discuss The Economy of Francis document ( found here ). The authors hope to "propose a vision that we consider in tune with the radical nature of [Pope Francis'] teachings and the revolutionary nature of Christian faith. We also want to collaborate in creating and demonstrating alternative experiences of living and working that allow us to make use of the goods of nature in ways that respond, not to the logic of the god money, but to our people’s need to live well." You might also want to check out the Message from Pope Francis on the Occasion of the Fourth World Meeting of Popular Movements ( found here ) in preparation for the discussion. No time for reading? Join us anyway!
Hi - I would like to connect with you folks - I will be coming to St Louis Aug 11-17 from Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage - I am a licensed professional civil engineer (PE) in Missouri & Kansas, and a handyman / farmer / small business person - have also lived with the Twelve Tribes Communities for awhile, too - but am originally from St Peter parish in Kirkwood, MO, and attended SLUH before my dad got transferred to Michigan when I was younger... am hoping to attend the Nurturing Communities Network retreat at Camp Loucon in Kentucky this October (am carpooling with a family from Excelsior Springs, MO) - am excited to hear you are wanting to get a house (I have a house in Princeton Heights that might work, but it's currently in use) - I would potentially be interested in helping with that effort, and maybe even co-housing with you (if that would even be an option) - in the meantime, please feel free to contact me - would love to hear from you... Mike "Daragh" Kelly, (816) 492-9344, or mike@oakandlimestone.org
