Welcome

In the center of our recent ‘circle’ (Gardeners of Peace conference call, Sept. 29, 2007), we could sense a deep desire for a community of heart-centered people who are alive, awake and able to connect on an essential level, with the ‘gardener within’ and together as a developing community. It is from this ‘opened space’ that the collective wisdom, heart and spirit will continue to grow and take shape. The Garden (Gardeners of Peace) provides the 'vessel' in which this growth will emerge, expand and ultimately bear 'fruits' of all kinds, and where you are invited to reflect privately or aloud with others.

You may ask, “What is this Gardening all about, and what is in it for me?” Please realize that only you have the answer to these questions, and only you know how to contribute to make this world we live in a better place. No one among the Gardeners is here to tell you what to do.

We hope that you will find meaning in these few lines of introduction, as well as in the invitation, and that you will feel called to join us in our active search for peace, in our active gardening of our lives and of our earth. Gardening can be a very meaningful activity and a potent metaphor – and a very simple one as well. It is an activity that allows us to reach and tap our deepest identity: human beingness.

Phone Council June 22nd Invitation

If you are in the garden, I will dress myself in leaves…I will present myself with all the laughters I can muster. And if you are angry I will come, calm and steady, with some small and easy story.

Mary Oliver, Rhapsody


Please join us for the June phone council of the Gardeners of Peace

Sunday, June 22, 3:30 – 5:00pm EDT
(We are meeting on the 4th Sunday of each month)

We invite the space and quiet for reflection.

Here is one question to consider for our time together:

Who is someone who taught you how to garden well, literally or metaphorically? What story might you tell that would illuminate the wisdom of his or her gifts?

Tel: (712) 432-1100 Access Code: 497860#

Please feel free to arrive 10 minutes early and join us in silence

RSVP: holly@ourellipses.com
