So, didn't that Jim Baumbach and his wife, Alice, go around the world
summer 1970 instead of enabling the Global Academy?

Somewhere there is a box that got lost in one of my many moving trips. In
it was my Birth Certificate and my certificate of graduation from the
Academy of the Institute of Cultural Affairs, a division of the Ecumenical
Institute: Chicago, signed by its' Dean, Joe Mathews and its Chairman David
Woods. I guess that put me as being some what less believable than the
President. However, If I could bring myself to expose the proper right-wing
ideology I am sure Fox News could authenticate me!

OK David we're almost convinced you say who you are but now we require a
"full birth certificate" and definite proof that you were not born in Kenya
and that you are a true American citizen!!!

I am David Walters and I was born in Mobile, AL and went to high school
with Frank Powell where Joe Thomas and George West had already
graduated. I took a PLC in the spring of '70 because Basil Sharp said I would get
a lot out of it. He told me to go by the Atlanta House and pick up a
brochure. Jack Barringer answered the door and gave me one. I wasn't there hardly
there 3 minutes. At the time I was living in a small town in south
Georgia. Somehow he got me phone number and called every other day or so for 3
weeks. So I went. Basil's wife Marie sat across the table from me. A young
guy named Jim Troxel and another tall lanky fellow named Rick Loudermilk
just blew me away. My life was transformed tho earthly as before. 2 weeks
later I went to an RS1 and moved into the Atlanta House on Sunday night after
it was over.
Baringer decided I needed to come to Chicago were he had been for several
weeks to something called a Summer Research Assembly. I took a flight out
of Atlanta. He met me at O'Hare and took me on a wild ride thru downtown
Chicago and out an expressway to a strange place on the westside at 1 o'clock
in the morning. After I had been the a day or so I was put on a team that
was working on covert a gym into what would be a week later the Great Hall
of the Ecumenical Institute. One of the guys I worked with was Jim Wiegel.
Then I went to the fifth session of the Global Academy for Global
Churchmen where one of my teachers was wild guy mamed Charles Alan Lingo. I had
lived across the hall from him few weeks earlier and he had a beautiful young
daughter. Gene Marshall lectured in surgical gloves becuase he was
allergic to chalk. Roger and Mimi Shinnn were there. Besides all the lectures and
classes, I learned a lot around the edges from Harold Williams.
I worked the next summer of the Social Processes. It is interesting that
by the luck of the draw, cosmic alignment of whatever, I spent both summers
in Room A. During the period after the suumer progam we had a Order
Council and were also in Room A. We ran out of seats. I was sitting on the foor
against the back wall next to David Scott. The guy up talking in the front
of the room was droning on and on when David Scott groaned rather loudly.
His wife was sitting on ther other side of him and elbowed him in the ribs
and told him "someday that guy may be the only collegue you have. Ssssh!"
After that I wound up working with my father for six years were I now live
in Andalusia. Itook off for three yearsin the early part of '78 and
helped finish Town Meetings in Mississippi, Louisianna, Aand Arkansas. Then I
spent 2 years working on the Gibson HDP
Speaking of Gibson, I understand that there is some film that was shot in
Gibson but never edited in the Archives at Kemper. Who could assign
Marshall to finish this and put out a CD?
To answer the question how I know so much about the early days. Well my
granfather told early on that if I listened more and talked less I would
learn more. During the 70s at summer programs, council meetings, etc. I tended
to talk to folks around the edges and ask a lot of questions. I am also one
of those hardheaded Presbyterians like Joe Slicker who always going to
figure things out. Another fact is that I google a lot.

Dear David Walters,
Where are you?
I was just speaking on skype with Paul Schrijnen who asked me, 'who is
David Walters?'
I couldn't tell him, what you 'looked' like or how old you are, or what
you did with the order, or anything very much when he asked.
So, here I am, hanging out, asking you for an introduction. My apologies
to you for my forgotten remembrances.
Your sharings on the list serve have been meaningful to me, and I assume
to several others. What's to know about you?
It was pleasant to see you refer to the May1962 Time Magazine article on
the CFLC just after its faculty had exploded.
Doc Wagener captured the articulation of our self-understanding well for
the Time writer.
The answer to your 'mansion' question is: The Wooten Mansion. It served as
the first women's residence of the CFLC.
Later, it was more well known nationally as the LAOS HOUSE, where PLCs and
RS-1s and other curricula were presented and developed. It's very special
dining room was not only the lecture hall for these courses, but was the
elegant space where the House Church Common Meal service was celebrated,
studied, and experimented with.
In 1991 a 'retired from Cornell' Jack Lewis summoned a reunion of 40 plus
former members of the CFLC for two days in that space. It was there that
he declared his common sense of his having been and, still being, 'a
Christian heretic'. There, also, he chose to share his profound admiration for
the faith and life of the Dali Lama as a symbol of our faith and life
continuity.
It will be good to hear from you again.
Lurking for your reply,
Al Lingo in Decatur GA.

Bishop Jim gives a better explaination in Brother Joe.
Here is a link ti a Time artticle from 1962 about the Cristian Faith and
Life Community. Page 2 of the article has some interesting quotes.

(http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,827348-2,00.html)
Speaking of CFLC do any remember the building where it was located. This
article describes a place called Mansion on the Hill that notes the CLFC
bought it in 1953 and used it for its student dormitory.

What's the history of development of RS-1 -content, structure and
choreography?
Did it begin with CFLC? RR
