Hi David,
I would recommend Nan and Bill Grow as mentors with deep memories, both long
ago (OE days) and recently (the years since the Diaspora). Their e-mail
addresses in Wallingford, CT (where they now live) are the same as those
listed in the Directory.
The Grows made profound contributions to constructs such as the Human
Resurgence Mission (I believe that's what the HRM represented) used with
many local churches; a special leadership empowerment program for Bishop Jim
(when he was in DC) tailored for District Superintendents in his area; and
many quarters' worth of our OE "Internal Life Guides" which cared for our
spirit life and practices both in the Centrums and the Houses. The latter
are some of the documents in our boxes of files I am least willing to
jettison (as I steadily realize shedding is the radical necessary deed at
this point.)
Beyond that was the work Nan did (and has likely continued) in "the ritual
process," as part of her M Div. work.
I would love to hear how this important initiative unfolds.

Subject: [Oe List ...] request for models and resources
Hello colleagues.
I'm about the take on responsibility for setting up a "small Christian
community" project at Church of the Holy Family in Aurora. In the broad, it
sounds like an effort at creating ecclesiola groups or house churches or
home-based study groups, etc.
Do you have recommendations for models from our common memory, mentors in
our colleague network with related experience, or relevant resources you or
others have used in local church work?
I'm bringing this project and these questions to the sojourn week in Chicago
in September for a little focused digging, research, and re-appropriating
our experience.
Feedback?
David
