I'm so glad that David has now been properly introduced to those of us who  
didn't formerly have the pleasure. I've sometimes wondered if he was George 
and  Carol's oldest son:)

I’ve meant to weigh  in briefly on “who is David Walters.” I got a phone 
call from him near the  beginning of the great debacle (October 2006 – known 
also as the great  whacking, the kerfuffle, the formation of the Institute 
of Something  Else…etc.). I didn’t know him from Adam (or Eve for that 
matter, though  clearly both were involved somewhere back there long before 
Georgia!). But I  “KNEW” him – a good ole boy from the south per his lovely and 
familiar accent,  but on the other hand, one clearly upset and “hot to trot 
to get some  different outcome” kind of colleague.

The phone call came  at a time when I needed to hear support from someone I 
didn’t know and yet  “KNEW” at the level of interior angst and “we’re in 
the same trench here.”  Deep thanks, David.

No, I am not George Walters' son.  However, somewhere in the early 1800s 
our forebearers were in Georgia. One  part of the family left for north 
Florida and George descends from them.  Another branch wound up in sout Alabama 
where I now live. This makes kin us  somehow but I now not quite sure how to 
state it - maybe fifth cousin seven  times removed. Otherwise I think Georg 
is a real great guy who publishes fine  books.

When I  have seen David’s name, I have assumed that this is David, the son 
of Carol  and George.  Maybe I’m wrong.

This is a real mystery.  I  thought I was familiar with just about everyone 
from the early days, but I  don't have any image or memory of a David 
Walters.  Do you think he  really exists?  Perhaps it's another colleague using a 
false name so they  can speak without people judging.  We need to get to 
the bottom of  this!

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
