i believe that he is coming. And my youngest, Ben, is also.

BTW - while I'm thinking of it, I don't know if Jeff has gotten around to tell you but we're encouraging him to look at GMU for college (one application, anyway) and specifically at the ICAR program due to his interesting in international affairs, mediation and conflict resolution. If you get the chance to tell him a little about the program/your experience sometime this year, that would be great.

Thanks!

Thanks. I look forward to referrals you may generate. I think it can be really fun because when the credentialing work is done or slow, volunteers can be learning more about the new web site tools for growing relationships in our community. I can be reached at 703-521-8907. Thank you.

Would you be available to help hand out web site credentials on Sept 13 or some of the following Sundays?

See the blog post "Sept 13 Launch: Volunteers Needed" - There is a link there to a sign-up spreadsheet -- with lots of choices and asking if you have a laptop.

I would appreciate it if you would consider helping in this part of the launch effort.

Hi Sana. I had the Youth Adults as a placeholder. I've deleted it. Now you can set up a group as its administrator. Please make the group private and that you'll have to authorize members to it. Run it as you would if we were live. Don't let any personally identifiable information such as phone numbers and addresses appear in the group. Have fun!

Profile Information

What religion or spiritual practices did you grow up with?
Sufi Islam and meditation from Ananda Marga. Also, I took a lot of family field trips to other faith celebrations and cultural events. So, I have been more "bi-lingual" in spiritual practices, meaning that I think that there are more ways to be spiritual than just one.
