Getting Back to Eden...

Love recommended this website about a documentary on organic gardening.
You can actually watch the film right on the homepage or order a DVD for your home library.

"Back to Eden Film shares the story of one man’s lifelong journey, walking with God and learning how to get back to the simple, productive growing methods of sustainable provision that were given to man in the garden of Eden." (from their website)

Be sure to visit http://www.backtoedenfilm.com/ soon!  (Keep in mind, on my chrome browser, I have to scroll down a bit before page text begins.)  And let us know what you think of their website and film in the comments below.

And if you have content that is in line with our ideals that you would like to share on the blog, please feel free to email us.

Keep warm and get your seeds ready!

What would you say?

What if our social media presence was not just advertising for ourselves, but a constantly flowing fountain of inspiration and cultural innovation? What if we thought of our community as not just the people who gather with us on Sunday morning but all their friends, too, and all their friends' friends and everyone who follows them on Twitter?
What would we say to them? We would say, "You matter. You are a child of God and you have a right to be here, to be yourself, to think for yourself. Listen for the truth, and speak it, too. Respect yourself and treat others wit the same respect. Open yourself to the new and the unknown. Love your neighbor as yourself. Be thankful for all you have received and share it joyfully. Sing. Be the change you wish to see in the world."

Saturday Socials on official hiatus


Due to lifus interruptus, as tends to happen from time-to-time, Saturday Socials are on hold... indefinitely at this point.  Stay tuned!
For the time being, I'm removing them from the yahoo calendar and google calendar so they will stop sending out unneeded reminders.
If someone else wants to do an occasional social, please don't hesitate to let us know!
