Sign & Dome

/0 Comments/in

Next Step #508: Prelude to the Reclaim Conference (2018) looks at a form of learn and introspection. The unlikely pairing of two icons, a sign and a dome beg the question: what is there to reclaim? Something lost? Something forgotten? Here is a run down of what to expect at the conference and in life. A lenten journey with tentacles that reach out.

Cancer: the Great Equalizer

/0 Comments/in

Next Step #484: Post-event reflections. Surviving a 39 mile walk and living to tell about it. And how? By connecting the dots between God, faith and religion, how else? Here’s a behind the scene look at the appeal of a difficult event and how it becomes a privilege to participate.  Applications for models of service and funding. Thoughts on the threshold of funding our important outreach programs. Cancer as the great equalizer.
