those themes, I wanted to share with
you a link to a song video "Let the
Earth Breathe" our daughter, Chenoa
(who, now, working in Peru, has also
worked in Bolivia, Sri Lanka, and
India), and I worked on. Some
background. After Carleton, and I
"retired" in 2011, we decided we
wanted to focus our work on
addressing the environment from the
Universe Story perspective. In 2012
we decided to host a winter/spring
environmental film series in
Ferguson to start our effort, which
included showing "Journey of the
Universe". The last program in May
was not a film but the "Awakening
the Dreamer" Symposium. It was also
part of the ICA 50th Anniversary
Event. For that event, I wrote the
song "Let the Earth Breathe". Out
of that event came a core of people
who were interested in pursuing
environmental issues and eventually
became the Ferguson Eco Team which
is still active (and will be
re-showing that film April 15). <o:p></o:p></span></p>

style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Later
that year
Chenoa and I
made an audio
recording of
our singing
the song
together (not
professional--mainly just to have a record of it) which I sent out over
the ICA list
serve and was
later included
as part of the
Ecumenical
(Church of
Australia)
Season of
Creation
resource
curriculum
(<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.seasonofcreation.org">www.seasonofcreation.org</a>).
Since then, it
has been used
in several
services and
other events.
Over the
years, as we
have
experienced
the
intersectionality
of issues
related to the
environment,
racism,
pandemic,
economic/social
disparities,
the song has
taken on
additional
levels of
meaning. In
2020 Chenoa
and I started
working on
photos that
could
accompany it.
We finished
that in
January, and
Carleton and I
used it for a
zoom
environmental
session (1st
of a four part
environmental
series) we did
February 21
with Central
Presbyterian
Church in
Denver, CO,
coordinated
and
facilitated by
Sherwood and
Eunice
Shankland.
(Jim and
OliveAnn
Slotta were
also present,
commenting on
their work
related to
the <i>Accelerate
</i>Environmental
Forums they
are
facilitating
in the Denver
area). <o:p></o:p></span></p>
