Getting to know our realities

At the end of the session yesterday morning, the facilitator sent the Assembly in pairs to the room of displays (each area set up a little exhibit of their reality). The idea was to introduce one another to each one's place of origin. The energy in the room was amazing!  We are the world!

Here are a few photos from the last few days, notice the joy!    Today, our Regional Community back home in the Pennsylvania area dedicated the outdoor "chapel" and prayed to stop the pipeline and preserve the care of the land.  Some of the group here watched it "live streamed"  How we can reach all over the world in solidarity!  Amazing Grace!
