Yesterday we found ourself regretting the bottle waters that we've bought in the last....well...life. I surely went to bed thankful for my (much shorter) shower. We also heard from a great conservationist who pointed to the wonder of our watershed and the danger or loosing it. Growth is not always good as our water supply may dry up. We then heard from a man who I thought was a youth who told us the danger of construction pollutants, erosion, and sedimentary run-off. His message was great but I failed to see how it related to us in the church.
This morning we shifted gears and realized our need to be knowledgable and present for our community. This means finding ourselves stepping up for a community amidst disaster and knowing where to turn but also allowing ourselves to be those for others. This means knowing what the heck we are talking about without spitting false truths or allowing speculation into our psyche. I loved that he (Nic Cage look alike) looked toward social media (surprised?) as a key way to reach others. The tour was a bit of a let down, truthfully. I was looking forward to more secretive access and fun insight. The big room was neat and it was awesome to see a Columbia grad chiming in on the wall about H1N1.
