[Oe List ...] [Dialogue] Thank you, Dawn!

Mon Jul 3 06:50:24 PDT 2017

Do you remember when the Student House did the play, Journey to the East in 1981?  Thelma Newearth (?) and Kay Nixon wrote the script.  I'll bet the kids remember.

When the spirit occasions these sessions, I usually say to myself, I'm going to sing one or two and go to bed. But I don't stop there. Would you believe four or five? With some of you having similar experiences would you believe the Spirit is at work amongst us?

That was a time of loss and a bit of our drifting away from our spiritual tools and discipline for me. Still I believe, in retrospect, we were destined to 'find ourselves as a 'beloved  community' in a most quiet and miraculous way. TBTG!

Goodby my Coney Island Baby, Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow, I Don't Know Why, More,  . . . Grand finale was the Poverty Song (Come Walk with Francis . . Had to dig out the words for that one. .). Any other strange outbursts happening lately??
