I met Carleton at LCX Research Assembly, which wasn't that long ago. That being case, I would not think that he is old enough to retire. Of course, Presbyterian ministers never retire - they just don't preach at the same place every Sunday.

Greetings from St. Louis,

Carleton and I are preparing to "re-tire" from the local church pastorate this summer, 7/17 being our last Sunday.  In August we return to the Genesis Farm for the New Cosmology/Earth Literacy Immersion led by Sr. Miriam MacGillis, closing with Brian Swimme's new film "Journey of the Universe".  (A book of the same title has been published and a new dvd study series will soon be released.)  We were there last April for the Transitions Communities Intensive Training.  As a follow-up we are doing an 8-week study series which is listed below in case anyone might be interested in any of the resources.  Since then, we have connected with a local organic farm (EarthDanceFarms.org) and its CSA (community supported agriculture program).  [The class preceding this was a 7-week series on the New Religious Mode/New Social Vehicle.]

We are also in the process of sorting through/cleaning out two offices and marrying two libraries.  If anyone would like a copy of the 1970 LCX Tactics Manual (36 tactics booklets), let me know.

WEDNESDAY CLASS

 The last Wednesday Adult class for this season is an eight-week study, beginning May 18, 10:00-11:45AM.  The theme will be “The Big Picture:  Transitioning into the Future:  Facing Our Fears, Embracing Our Hopes”.   The focus will be looking at the transition the world is facing today, reflecting on the broader universal context and thinking through the church’s role in “midwifing” new structures in the midst of societal crisis and collapse.  The classes include a series of dvds and discussions ranging the broad spectrum of the unfolding universe from which our human journey emerges, to the some of the current challenges we face as humans on our home planet, to ways we as Christians and the church can partner to create more sustainable and self-reliant communities that live in harmony with creation’s resources.  The schedule is below:
