We rotate meeting in our homes. If the event is at your house you provide the main course AND the study. Everyone else brings other food or drink. We value the structure. Someone called it our collegium or an Eclesiola. It is important to us that we gather for intentionality including but not limited to socializing.</span></div><div class="yiv3822661171" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif;"><span class="yiv3822661171" lang="EN-AU" style="font-size:14pt;"> </span></div><div class="yiv3822661171" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif;"><span class="yiv3822661171" lang="EN-AU" style="font-size:14pt;">On Sunday evening I led our most recent study, a look at 10 letters written in June to the OE dialogue about relating to the Order.

We were not necessarily Order friends, some of us did not know each other before this grouping but we have sustained a collegial meeting for near 30 years. The membership has changed as people moved here or away. 6 of us moved here and joined this group with an ongoing life. Now we are George and Wanda Holcombe, Dane and Glenda Atkinson, Diane and Terry McCabe, Deanna and Ken Henry, and Stuart and Mary Hampton. We are mindful of our location’s long history with the Spirit Movement as the home of the Faith and Life Community. <span class="yiv3822661171Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></div><div class="yiv3822661171" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif;"><span class="yiv3822661171" lang="EN-AU" style="font-size:14pt;"> </span></div><div class="yiv3822661171" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif;"><span class="yiv3822661171" lang="EN-AU" style="font-size:14pt;">We share a common legacy of relationships.
