Community Forming Chris Burns and Llyn Peabody Posted On 11/21/2009, Last Updated On 11/21/2009
We want to form a non-denominational, faith-based community around the principle of ‘sharing all things’. We believe that the only good use for money is using it to get rid of the need for it. We have no interest in ownership or the building up of credit or equity. We believe that the profit motive is a major element to be left behind in the formation of alternative and intentional community. We believe it to be a time when everything that we’ve ever been taught should come under our close scrutiny, especially everything that is referred to as ‘the real world’. We believe in living life from a proactive stance which means that we do not oppose anything but rather live ‘for’ something which we believe to be a better way of being and living in this world. We believe that the only structure needed in our lives is one that sees to it that all people have the amenities of life abundantly and without competition and the existence of social classes based on material ‘holdings’.

Community With Opening dennis gordon Posted On 11/20/2009, Last Updated On 11/20/2009
Cappy and I have finally moved onto the property in McNeal Az. We have 4 permanent structures including a 35' travel trailer, pickup camper mounted above the ground, an electric house for the solar inverter and panels, and a 65' single wide mobile home. The perimeter fence is almost complete and we are slowly getting the basic needs in place. We are looking for individuals or couples to share the experience with us. We dont have a religious agenda. We would like to grow as much food as we can to eat and sell, find a way to market the natural resources on the property or to start some kind of for profit enterprise on the property. We are located at the base of a small Butte that rises above the valley. I have thoughts we could put a low power radio station on the top of the Butte. We have just started to bounce ideas around as to what we could do out here. 40 acres seems big enough to do anything we want to do. If you are interested please email at gordo6556@gmail.com. We can open a dialogue and go from there. We are looking for a caretaker to be on the property during the weekdays 24-7 and weekends off. Salary would be negotiable. If you would like to be in a warm place check out the weatherunderground website to find the temps. We are at 4200' in the sonoran desert. You can find us under Bird of Paradise in the IC. I will be updating the site soon.

I am a spiritually born human being, and I have received the order, to make myself next spring on the way, to find other spiritually born brothers and sisters, or to help from the Divine Parents chosen people by their spiritual birth. So, if you have the feeling, to be called, to become a servant of the living Divine, then you can invite me in your home. In exchange, I will teach you, how you can perceive and understand the numinous voice of the Divine.

Ich bin ein spirituell geborener Mensch, und ich habe den Auftrag erhalten, mich im Frühjahr auf den Weg zu machen, um andere spirituell geborene Brüder und Schwestern zu finden, oder von den göttlichen Eltern auserwählten Menschen bei deren spiritueller Geburt zu helfen. Wenn Du also das Gefühl hast, berufen zu sein, ein Diener des lebendigen Göttlichen zu werden, dann kannst Du mich in Dein Haus einladen. Ich werde Dich im Gegenzug lehren, wie Du die numinose Stimme des Göttlichen wahrnehmen und verstehen kannst.

Community With Opening Song Posted On 7/3/2009, Last Updated On 11/20/2009
Hey folks!

Song here with the Consciousness Caravan. We're travelling around the US visiting festivals, communities and parks putting out as much love via massage, music, theater and dance.

This is mostly East coast based for now but there are plans for the west coast.

I JUST bought a full sized bus in great condition and i'm putting some basics like beds, ufo landing pad and disco dance floor, etc. This is a laid back expedition - if you are looking to SAVE THE WORLD quite fervently then please keep on looking - i'm just out to love and be loved - one person at a time.

If this interests you please check out the website and contact us for more info.

One love!

May all your good dreams come true!

love,

Song
