Am back from sabbatical and engaging mainstream parish life, trying not to get overwhelmed by brushfires and stuff. But it's a new year. Had four months of monasticism--lived with the Trappists for a month, read around in John Cassian and Bernard of Clairvaux--and emerging, visiting, talking, connecting with PDX emerging folk and spent a month with Karen Ward and COTA in Seattle. A feast for the soul, all in all. So why do I feel decrepit? Might be that 50th birthday that went by almost ignored!

Thanks for your kind words, Pat. Where have you been in the Celtic heartland?

Hey Kurt - I just started reading your book, and really like it so far. Like you, I've travelled to visit Celtic sites adn learn more about the spirituality, and am trying to find ways to live it out in my neighborhood. Your book will be helpful I'm sure!

Hey PDX confreres there is a young singer named Kate Hurley coming to town sometime in March. She found my name thru some Emerging contacts. She sent me a couple of her CD's and I like her sound--"Christian" but kind of ska-funky, different than what I usually shy from as "Christian music". She's like a small venue of some sort--church, coffeeshop. Anyone want to hear her stuff or have ideas? Could be a fun informal event...

Just put up an Eighth Day Network group on this site - go ahead and add yourself to it, and I'll send an invite to others. Perhaps this will be a good spot for ongoing conversation and announcements, etc.?

TIPS FOR USING NW HOTHOUSE NING

You can customize your personal page with a hand picked color scheme or pre made template, and use your text box to post a picture, talk about about yourself, your church, hawk your books... as you choose.

Groups are for 'cohorts'
on this site intended for state/ province cohorts: Washington, Oregon, B.C, Idaho (one main group page per state/province cort). - To start a topical discussion with folk across the whole network (not specific to your state/province cohort) use 'forums' rather than start a group. + And on your state/province cohort group page, start forums *specific to your state/province cohort.*

Wall comments are public.
When you add a comment to someone's wall, everyone can else read it. so the wall is best for quick, non private greetings/ comments.

Email is private.
To send a private email message to a member 1. click on their picture.
2. Then on their personal profile (below their picture) click 'send a message.'

Blog posts are public. Share a 'one off,' brilliant thought, image or video with the whole network on a blog post.

Forms launch 'ongoing' conversations. (topical discussion threads meant to continue over time).

Check your mail & friend requests click the mail or friends icon - top, left corner of the website.

Cheers and enjoy networking !
