Happy New Year!
A quick update on Emmaus Road, a Bay Area Emergent Cohort.
In 2006 we gathered in a variety of venues to promote generative friendships
among missional Christians. We met in locations around the bay area for
meals and discussions on a variety of topics-- and in the later part of the
year a group of us committed to meeting once a month over six months for a
more intensive Peer Learning Community. In 2007 we’ve decided to try a
topical approach.
The conversation continues in 2007 with a series of theological discussions
we are calling: The Sugarlump Theology Salon

CREATIVITY JESUS DOJO:
Rediscovering Creativity Workshop
Do you aspire to be more creative in 2007? Perhaps you can remember a
time when you had more freedom of expression. Many people have experienced
profound personal transformation through practices that combine
spirituality and creativity. This seven-week workshop will explore how to cultivate
your artistic voice and talents more fully. Through daily personal exercises
and group process we will help one another tap into our creative potential,
using Julia Cameron’s book, The Artist’s Way, as a guide for inspiration
and discipline. Sponsored by ReIMAGINE! A Center for Life Integration. We are
a collective of artists and activists that fuel initiatives to integrate
spiritual formation, creativity, community-building and social action. We
believe personal integration comes through revolutionary thought,
experiential learning and transformational relationships.
Team facilitated by Mark Scandrette and Adam Klein. Mark Scandrette is a
writer, poet and life coach (and author of the forthcoming book on
integrative spirituality called SOUL GRAFFITI ). Adam Klein is a poet,
athlete and mechanical engineer.
Wednesdays 6-8 P.M.
January 17-February 28
Location? Golden Gate Community Inc. 21st @ Shotwell.
Cost:$30 which includes a light dinner each week. (Scholarship
information available upon request) Text for the workshop will need to be purchased by
each participant.
To register email peeps@reimagine.org by January 12th.
