Frank, I had never heard this “sermon” and it helps me understand a bit more.

As regards to the religious house, this is a good read from JWM

At my first  RS-1 Joe Pierce, the 1st teacher, kept talking about this “new thing” EI was doing, called “religious houses.” I asked him exactly what is a religious house and he said, “It’s kind of a hang out for revolutionaries.”

     I have a warm spot in my heart for them but, like facilitation, etc., I have to remind myself that they were essential tools for doing the the mission, but they were never the mission. I wish the institutional church had, years ago, realized that the mission was never to build more churches or to get more people to join the church, as an end in itself or as a means to keep the institution thriving. Religious houses, as Jim said, “enabled so many other things.”

Would be great to assemble annotated pictures of all those houses!!  I sometimes wonder whether the "religious house" was one of the most significant things we invented.  That form enabled so many other things . . .

And the first four Religious Houses were ?

Trying to remember… perhaps: Atlanta, Chicago South, Los Angeles, Kuala Lumpur? Boston?

The real treasure trove is the archive that Frank has assembled. How can this become accessible??

 

And useful!!  Attaching names, dates, places and descriptions. Big job, lot of fun

Photo archives are a mystery to me and where they are, actually.  The ICA Research Access account has quite a few old photos.  Not well organized, though we have started doing some facial recognition (faces I recognize . . .)

HI Frank

 

I would very much like to see the photos.  However this list does not

allow attachments. Could you put them on Dropbox or something similar.

 

Best wishes

 

Richard
