January Meeting Announcements
Thanks to everyone who made the January meeting happen, including our featured speakers from Harbin and Doris for hosting the meeting in her home. It was a good showing, around 30 people in all.
Russell and Heather, our presenters from Harbin Hot Springs, shared
what it's like to live in their intentional community. It's a special place where
they take community seriously, and it shows in all they do. They invited y'all
to visit them and see for yourself.
Below are the meeting notes. There's gold in them thar hills, really.
You should check 'em out because the gifts and needs are matching up all
over the place. Feel free to reach out to help and get help.
Our next meeting is Thursday, February 28th. We're featuring Chun Yu,
an award winning poet who is making a documentary about a Japanese
man who taught school in China right after WWII. She will share this true
story about an ordinary man who does an extraordinary thing in response to
an atrocity. Learn more about Chun here: http://www.chunyu.org. Her life
is also an amazing story.
We hope to see you then to create culture and connection that manifest
fun, friendship, meaningful work, intellectual stimulation, authentic connection, health, and happiness.
