We will discuss how valuable water is to every living thing on this planet and how this precious resource is limited. As our population increases, the demands for our natural resources increase as does our potential for befouling those resources. Ceremoniously, we will together participate in water communion, each bringing a small container of water from a trip we have taken, a place that holds special memories for us or from our own kitchen sink. These, we will blend with water from participants from previous years and store for the water communions in following years. Far from being a societal weakness, empathy may very well be the most important virtue we have to save humanity and bring about planetary healing. Speaker: Jack Bolerjack A lot of people tell the story of their addictions & recovery, but it’s always from the point of view of the addict. What about the other people in their universe? How is life for an Adult Child of Alcoholics or Addicts? My parents got sober when I was fifteen & a half years old. My brothers were 11 & 7. My story, although surrounded by parallel events, is through my eyes & from my memories. I will tell you how their illness impacted me.
