Ruth
by Richard Alton 29 Jul '13

29 Jul '13

Dick Alton here in Zimbabwa. I just read about Ruth's death. I am staying here with Gerald Gomani family while helping ICA Zimbabwe;s HIV/AIDS program. Ruth was here to help with an HIV/AIDS consult. She and Eric Smith brought their bikes to keep exercising. I told Gerald' family over dinner and they all remembered Ruth. As soon as dinner was over they had a service for her. They started with singing in Chewa " This world is not my home, I am a stranger here...." read the Bible- one of the Psalms and then ended with a long prayer for her glorious life..was very moving and felt very right.

Since I wasn't able to attend the memorial service myself, I asked good friends from the Philippines who now live in the Woodlands if they would attend on my behalf. They did. And I've just talked with them on the phone. They said the service was beautiful. Attached is a scan of the program.

Jr. Olympics National Track and Field in Greensboro, NC- Local Boy in Finals
by Lynda Cock 28 Jul '13

28 Jul '13

Dear Colleagues, Warning, this is a grandma brag. Delete if in a hurry. I'm slowly making progress after a ruptured disc July 1. Jono and Kelley and family (4) were thru this afternoon to check on me and we did an early celebration of Jono's 46th birthday since I won't be cleared to travel until after his real birthday Aug. 4, and then short distances for a while. Jeremiah and Nolan also came over. We all look like the Hop-a-Long Cassidy family. Me with a cane, having graduated from a walker and John with a strained back; Jeremiah on crutches, and Nolan (who was on crutches 2 months ago with a broken bone in his foot) sporting the big scraps above his ankle sustained in Thurs.'s Steeple Chase in the Jr. Olympics. Jeremiah injured his knee while on a Father-Son retreat with Nolan this past weekend.. He's had X-rays, but still not sure where the problem is, so he had MRI today before coming over. We are all so excited about Nolan's participation in the National Jr. Olympics. In Thurs. morning's preliminaries, he came in 2nd in his heat for the 1500m race which qualifies him to run in Sunday's finals for the National Jr. Olympics championships. There are over 8000 young people from around the US ages 8-18 participating right here in Greensboro at beautiful A&T stadium. Since we couldn't attend, we were delighted to find that the events are being Live Streamed free at <blocked::http://www.usatf.tv/> www.usatf.tv. His 1500m event against 12 other qualifiers will be around 2:30 EST on Sunday afternoon. He says that his injury was just a deep scrape and is healing nicely, (Thankfully young people heal so fast!) and he is cool about his participation tomorrow. If anyone is interested in watching, once you get on the Jr. Olympics USA Track and Field page, look for LIVE in big letters in the banner. Be sure to get the Jr. Olympics and not the Thorpe Cup. Look on the side bar for his impressive 2nd place win Thurs at some time if you wish. He is in 1500m Boys 15-16 Heat 3. In the finals tomorrow, there will only be one event, so it will be quick. He goes by Nolan Cook and is in the neon green jersey in Thurs. event. Who knows what his jersey will be tomorrow. Maybe it's a uniform and he will be in it again. Is this a proud grandma or what? Greensboro has lots of history with our movement and with several colleagues. Many of you have known Nolan's father, Jeremiah, as a young boy. We salute the discipline, skill and determination of this caring young man. Lynda Cock (and John)

What a smart race he ran. I loved seeing it, and the picture with Kaitlyn. Nolan is the same age as my granddaughter Courtney, Patrick's daughter. She on the swim team at Arroyo Grande H.S. I remember when the four-minute mile record was first made. Now 15 -year-olds do it. Fred ran track in h.s., college and the Navy, and we loved going to track meets. Went to the West Coast Relays every year until we took RS-1. Thank you, Lynda. In a message dated 7/28/2013 12:43:27 P.M.

Thank you, Isobel. I'm gratified to know this. I've particularly loved those two genius songs. Now, who knows the writer of writers of Dark Night - Long March? In my copy of the song book, I've changed the words "I suffer death before I die" to "I suffer death in midst of life." Blessings, Jann In a message dated 7/28/2013 12:22:16 A.M.

Probably the best person to comment on Russell is Kaye (Hayes) Gadway (sp?) in addition to Isobel.

Regret I never encountered him. From Isobel's description it appears he may have embodied much of which he wrote.

Did not know Russell, nor remember ever meeting him, though, like many, sang Contemplation and Being songs with deep feelings. Might someone post a photo? Sandals and safari suit will be a treat. We are imaginal educators, after all. 80% of what we know comes from what we see. So, if anyone has a pic, just scan! j'aime la vie Yesterday, appreciate; tomorrow, anticipate; today, participate.

Russell and Kaye Hayes were assigned to work around the northern part of Australia- around Darwin and to some of the Aboriginal Mission stations- Russell used to wear sandals that he had made out of used tyres. When Russell was living in the Sydney House, he composed both the Contemplation song- ' Come walk with Francis' and the Being song. The music would be blaring out loudly most of the day while he wrote his poetry. Russell always wore a very simple grey 'safari suit' . He had made it himself. He wore his dark, wavy hair shoulder length. When he was assigned to the children's structures, the children always did interesting and different activities- e.g..,climbing trees.

Yet as I look within No man has greater sin. I am the least of all I daily fall. But it's then when I Doubt that I can I choose to be nothing For man. To die is my lot I live as if not With Paul I merge with all. I see then as Never before The secrets of heaven my store. With wisdom twice my age My life an open page Though with each insight Gain a deeper pain. Yet I live with the Lord on my side And wild intuition My guide. I'm sent as a sign The bread and the wine My form And virgin born. Then I act seeing Action is vain And accomplishments Never as gain. To only do is less Than forming humanness So mission I must be To set men free. Called to burn as an Undying flame Each word and each Gesture the Name. I must through life-loss An exalted cross My place Reveal his face Then the Lord through My life prays a prayer And my being is Filled being there. I can invent anew what All the saints once knew By being who I am I create man. And it's no longer I who is seen But the Lord standing There in between. Finished as I die Held there between Sky and sod To save our God. Yes, it's there on the limbs of the worm eaten tree where the All and the Nothing can BE. j'aime la vie Yesterday, appreciate; tomorrow, anticipate; today, participate.
