Passion of the Earth Project - Thanks & Related Links

Thanks & Recommendations

 

Thanks to Sr. Teresa Jackson, Sr. Meg Sass, and Kathy McFaul, and the Monastery of St. Gertrude Community for inspiration and great trust. Thanks to Louise M. Tritton and the Pendle Hill Ecology and the Soul weekend course, January 2004, and to Brian Swimme, Alexandra Kovatz, and Gail Worchelo for tremendous workshops at the NW Catholic Women's Convocation in Seattle WA, April 2005.

Melanie especially recommends the following books from among those she read for this work: The Universe Story, by Brian Swimme and Thomas Berry; Way of the Cross, by Leonardo Boff; Original Self, by Thomas Moore; and any poetry by Mary Oliver, especially New & Selected Poems, Leaf and the Cloud, and Why I Wake Early. Books are great, but don't forget to GO OUTSIDE and BE in this exquisite world.
