  1. I'll be at the #MustardSeed distribution HQ kitchen, on Saturday, for the Lifecycles Project Society fruits chopping work party.
    Out on the salt marshes at Gorge Park with Peninsula Streams Society for a rewilding planting work party, on Sunday.
    Back at LifeCycles HQ for fruits sorting & volunteers' portraits/interviews, next Tuesday.
    I am documenting a fruit pick on Halloween day. It's also the last day for Hannah, one of our seasonal worker superstars. I'll miss her!

  2. ….The Buddha was not telling her insensitively to suck it up because her loss is no different from anyone else’s; rather, I think, he was trying to get her to face her grief head on, without relying on any painless solution or petition. Only she could bring herself some peace…..

  3. I wonder if the mustard seed parable (see Luke 13:18-21) is Jesus' version of self-deprecating humor...
    The Kingdom of God is like a mustard seed. When it is fully grown it becomes a "large bush" ... not a stately redwood tree or a robust oak, but a "bush."
    And look at this picture that I downloaded from Unsplash. An azalea is more of a proper bush IMHO. Mustard just looks like a plant...
    Anyhow. The point that I take is that God works amazing things in and through his disciples—but we're still a scraggly bunch—beautiful, and potently flavorful in our own ways, but still scraggly.

  4. Edmonton's Prairie Manor housing offers fresh start for vulnerable

    Residents of the 85-unit building sign a lease, pay rent based on 30 percent. There's staff just a few steps away to provide help when they need it. Prairie Manor is one of eight projects funded by the city and federal government. | edmontonjournal.com/news/local #abpoli #Federalfunding #homeless #MustardSeed #yeg #support
