Friends,
Since Larry Geis was going to be up in this neck of the woods, how delighted 16 of us were that he agreed to give us an update on about every activity going on in the Urantia Movement today. Jerry and Bibi Pando graciously hosted the event. We brought Pot luck snacks, and they were as delicious as Larry's Presentation was insightful. Great to see old friends such as Harry and Rachel there.
Sorry you missed it if you weren't there. We had a wonderful time.
Tom
Friends,
I counted 28 hungry souls who feasted upon the inexhaustable discussions about nearly every conceivable topic in the Urantia Book as Chris Halvorson held forth, occasionally punctuated by the beautiful rhythmic poetry of David Glass. We started with a meditation at 11 AM on this extraordinarily beautiful August day. Then Barbara led us on a discussion by each of us about what it is that "drives" us. Many diversed ideas and personal revelations were elicited by this discussion. We then ate a wonderful material feast of a huge variety of the most delicious food you can imagine. We went on like this all day long and even into the evening and night stopping long enough to eat the plenteous leftovers. Chris is quite a thinker and is so willing to share his insights with us. If you want to see some of his written ideas or watch one of his study groups, his website is: http://perfectinghorizons.org/ Check it out.
Many of us continued these discussions on Sunday morning at Barbara Hester's house. Another delicious pot luck brunch was had and Chris again inexhaustively shared his many diverse insights.
Chris and Alaska friend Ed Harrigan had to catch their flights back home Sunday afternoon, and we had to say a temporary farewell to our friends.
