Ellen, Wow! How can we get a copy of your booklet? Where else are you
doing an exhibit? With deep appreciation for the work you do, Lynda Cock

In The Coming of the Cosmic Christ, Fox describes "Twenty -one Running,
Working, Experiential Definitions of Mysticism". I was so intrigued that I
created 21 mandalas in response to his definitions.
Subsequently, during the 1989 Advent/Christmastide season there was a show
of these framed mandalas in the conference room of The Capitol Region
Conference of Churches in Hartford, Ct. I mailed a copy of An Advent Journey
booklet used in conjunction with the show to Matt, via his publisher.
It is wonderful to know that he will be in dialogue with those who can be
present at Abbey North.
Love to all, Grace & Peace,
Ellen Howie

Thanks, John and Thea. Have a great dialogue.

I think ORIGINAL BLESSING is an evolutionary concept and the best book title
in my memory.

I too appreciated Original Blessing. Another excellent book by Fox is The
Reinvention of Work: A New Vision of Livelihood for Our Time. In it he says,
"When we work from a deep and spiritual place we do so without an extrinsic
purpose in mind. We work for the sake of working and love for the sake of
loving and live for the sake of living... Let work speak. Let work take
responsibility for itself. Let work stand up and be counted... Work, like
life, arises out of itself from its own foundation. The energy for work
lives in the work itself. Therefore we can say that we work for the sake of
working... Like life itself, work contains its own reward... Working without
a why means letting go of all superficial enticements to our labor and
working out of our innermost selves."

I think it was Roseanne Sands standing at the photocopier at Kemper with
"Original Blessing" that first got me intrigued by Matt Fox (who was then at
Mundelein, I believe). Since then I did both the Master's and the Doctor of
Min program with him. The work they are now doing on Creation Spirituality
Communities (this is Mel's big focus) is just starting, but quite exciting,
I think.
Say hello to Matt for me.

Dear Colleagues:
Matthew Fox will spend the evening of 8 November with us for informal
conversation at Abbey North in Haliburton, Ontario (that's Canada).
If there are those who would wish to spend that evening with us, we probably
have sufficient rooms to accommodate you overnight, especially if you book
early.
Deepest regards,
John and Thea Patterson
