We give thanks for his (and Del's) leadership with "Area New York" when we were assigned there and many other places. May the legacy of his leadership and compassion, his many talents, and the gift of his whole life continue to be a source of comfort, inspiration, peace, and hope to his family and friends all those whose lives he touched now and in the days to come. Grace and peace ~blessings and love, Carleton and Ellie carletonstock@aol.comelliestock@aol.com On Sunday, October 27, 2024 at 01:32:26 PM EDT, Elizabeth Caperton via OE <oe(a)lists.wedgeblade.net> wrote: The Morrill family has asked me to share the following about Justin’s death. "Justin Irving Morrill died yesterday, October 26, at the age of 92. What a grand human he was! Pianist, husband, pastor, father, world changer and traveler, idealist, spiritual seeker, handyman, gardener, chef, fund raiser of many millions for education and Community Health Care, supporter of the arts, grandfather and great grandfather and, most of all, a wise counselor. He was all that and more. We are celebrating a life well lived. We have not yet set plans for a memorial but will communicate them when we do. Del’s address is 7290 Rosemount Circle, Apt 112 Tacoma 98465 She also can communicate pretty well via text and phone, less on email. (253) 365-1321 Thanks for your thoughts and prayers, The Morrill Family" _______________________________________________ OE mailing list OE(a)lists.wedgeblade.net http://lists.wedgeblade.net/listinfo.cgi/oe-wedgeblade.net

Indigenous Peoples Day Greetings from Oberlin, OH where we now live. Below are: -a link to Oberlin's Proclamation on Indigenous Peoples Day; and | -a link to a short video re the Wampanoag 400 year history: "We Are Still Here." Oberlin celebrated with an Indigenous Peoples Day event Saturday in the community center: dancing, artisan tables, info tables for Indigenous groups in the area, children's activities, food, etc. Today was a vigil on Tappan Square, in the middle of town, where folks of all ages gathered to listen to the Proclamation, and be present to the history, culture, gifts, and challenges of, and the learnings from the Indigenous Peoples of this nation and globally. At our senior community, the celebration also has included a presentation on colonization, a special bulletin board and library display focused on Indigenous Peoples, individual displays outside apartments and cottages, a newsletter blog, and a Three Sisters Stew Dinner tonight--all coordinated by the newly formed Indigenous Peoples Interest Group. As a poster that we brought to the vigil says . . . DEFEND THE SACRED! May we learn from All Our Relatives--animal, vegetable, and mineral . . . before it is too late . . .

Wedding Announcement

Jan Sanders and I want you all to know about our upcoming wedding. We want you to share in our excitement as we start this new adventure! We found this quote from Pierre Teilhard de Chardin to be helpful. If you have any wisdom, quotes, or poetry to share about love and marriage, please share! Thanks! Blase "Love is an adventure and a conquest. It survives and develops like the universe itself only by perpetual discovery. The only right love is that between couples whose passion leads them both, one through the other, to a higher possession of their being. Put your faith in the spirit which dwells between the two of you. You have each offered yourself to the other as a boundless field of understanding, of enrichment, of mutually increased sensibility. You will meet above all by entering into and constantly sharing one another's thoughts, affections, and dreams. There alone, as you know, in spirit, which is arrived through flesh, you will find no disappointments, no limits. There alone the skies are ever open for your love; there alone lies the great road ahead."

so i turn again to this wisdom pool

The statement, "When the external situation creates an internal crisis from which we seek to escape, it is at that point that the question of God is raised" -- or something like that, was used to give a framework to the Question of God lecture in the Ecumenical Institute's "Question of God" lecture. What was the source of this statement? Something in Kierkegaard? Thanks for any help. I am frantically trying to swim in the deep waters of Gene Marshall's Zoom Symposium on a new Christian theology. Jim Wiegel “We are all time travelers journeying into the future. But let us make that future a place we want to visit. “ Stephen Hawking
