Nancy and all of us…
Songaia is clearly already a part of ‘our’ legacy…along with thousands of new initiatives that ‘we’ have taken with colleagues and on our own following our intense life in communities of faith and service. In a conversation with Jean Houston, years ago we talked about the ‘flowering of the order’ through books we have written, facilitated events and programs , business entities set up, professional associations established, training events conducted and on and on…
Put all that on a calculator and multiply ‘us’ x events x numbers of participants x the direct impact of participants on people we have never met…and the numbers go into the millions real quickly…
The privilege of taking part in and being part of the global spirit movement is humbling and inspiring.
And the new edges, the new forms are waiting for us to shape and energize. Thanks for the note, got my engine zooming J.
In Peace, Sherwood and Eunice

How exciting to hear the ongoing LEGACY stories of our journey! GREENRISE BUILDING is part of a dream come true! Congratulations to all who are sharing in the creation of projects and events globally in response to the issues of our time!
I have spoken in the past of our community of Songaia as being a part of the LEGACY of the Order:Ecumenical; a place of engagement, daily challenges of living in harmony with each other and our planet, a demonstration of "it takes a village to raise a child, an elder and every one else in-between", a place from which service to the broader world takes place, a demonstration of earth care and it's connection to all beings ..... and it is from this perspective that I share a link to our web site and blog ..... http://www.songaia.com/the-garden-blog
With gratitude,
Nancy

The commissioning of the ICA GreenRise solar project is scheduled for 10:00am on Wednesday morning, September 24, 2014, with notable public figures in attendance. This has attracted widespread interest because it is the largest installation of PV solar panels on a commercial building in Chicago outside of downtown. It will generate a quarter of the building's electrical use. It is a dramatic complement to ICA's neighborhood program on local sustainability initiatives, Accelerate 77. The commissioning event will highlight work with communities, service programs of building tenants, and other Uptown organizations during an Open House. Celebrate with us, wherever you are, and attend if you can!
