The Solar Crash: Final thoughts…

by Lon on September 4, 2008

The Solar Crash - Collage

- It was extraordinary to see relational networks converge, there was so much potential brimming, not just on stage but within the whole room.

- We live in a world desperately in need of spaces for meaningful connections

- There’s something deeply self-affirming about diversity

- Seeing this through from conception to reality was completely thrilling.

- One aspect I really loved was being able to empower people, to empower others. All my friends became talent scouts – seekers of creativity waiting to be revealed.

- Personally, nothing topped meeting people in the process of planning the event, and hearing of all the ways God is working in and through the people of this city.

- Christian’s shared about how they were surprised it wasn’t another lame Christian event

- Several artists shared with me how this event wasn’t simply about showcasing their stuff, or selling some paintings, but about exposing a piece of their soul.

- People shared with me about art’s incredible ability to heal, and express what words cannot.

I’ve already began dreaming up the next one, let me know if you’re interested in helping out!

Help Wanted…

by Lon on May 26, 2008

I’ve got a few ‘projects’ in the works that I can use some help with…

If you, or someone you know, can help with any of the following contact me.

- I’ve got two web startup ideas that I don’t see being done that would help advance the kingdom – I’m looking for interested individuals with web programming skills.

- I’m hoping to throw a party towards the end of summer… a little Solar Crash Bash… all proceeds going to a water-related cause. If anyone knows of good venues in Toronto or better yet has hook-ups for good deals please let me know.

- I’m also looking for artists of all kinds. I’ve got musicians to magicians lined up… but the more the merrier. Do you, or someone you know, have some latent talent you’d love to share with the world?

- General networking. right at this moment in my life, I’ve got some time for it. For those of you who know me, or follow along on the blog, is there someone you know that you think I should meet, in person or virtually? These days I’m really interested in new expressions of church, community development, the city of Toronto, simpler living and spirituality, the future of the church and planet earth… but really any good conversation will do for me these days. Pop me a message.
