PrioritiesThoughts on “Food, Family, Friends, and Faith: Celebrating the Holidays!” and the Future of ecumininet online!
I have been on sabbatical from ecumininet online! for a year, except during this last Spring Issue. I suspect that I had writer’s block that had extended to my arms and shoulders which had quite literally become “frozen.” Even my physical therapist had named it that. Sometimes the shoulders “thaw out.” Sometimes they don’t. Thinking symbolically, I began to wonder why I was also frozen with the ezine. I had tried to cognitively reason this symptom/manifestation. It dawned on me that totally focusing on the reflective (and often darker )sides of the self does not invite guests in for dinner, laugh with them, nor share recipes and tell them where they can find the ingredients for getting a life full of energy, joy, creativity, and color for life and faith. I had forgotten that even from the beginning you, the reader, have been our guests. This begins a new life and focus for ecumininet online! We launch this issue as an adventure with lots of great holiday recipes and stories of traditions and experiences that warm our hearts. The following is one way that you can sustain ecumininet online! for the future. Become a charter member of the new Ecumenical Ministry Network. I already have people signing up for this; from authors to attorneys to pastors and educators, the list is growing. This is for individuals, church or organization leaders, and faith-based business leaders who will design, develop/build, and maintain the foundation of this new organization and ecumininet online! Members will receive:
