Thy Kingdom Come!
Dear friends of
the Holy Land and of the Magdala Center,
A
wonderful team of volunteers have patiently and generously put together
a beautiful event in Denver for June the 8th, The
Galilee Gala, at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science.
The riches of the site and
the recent archeological discoveries call us all to see what
we share in common: a First Century Synagogue CNN article with the oldest Menorah ever
found on stone in a town so precious to Christians
because of Mary Magdalene and Jesus’ ministry there on the
Lake Shore. Back then we were not divided into different
confessions. So everybody is welcome to come find their roots.
Leaders of many diverse Denver faith communities are coming
to celebrate this discovery and strengthen bonds of fraternity and
unity. What a beautiful legacy the Magdala Center is already
inspiring around the world! Article
Over the years we
have had many pilgrims from Denver and as different as
they were, all were enthusiastic for this project. In fact
it was the former First Lady, Jeannie Ritter who said
we should call it The Galilee Gala! They will surely
be an inspiration for other creative efforts around the world.
Denver Post article
Our World is living
through times of particular tension. We need signals, gestures and
deeds of seeking to find what we all have in
common so we recognize ever more our oneness as a
human family, especially all who are religious believers. Please pray
for abundant blessings on this encounter and that these blessings
can reach far and wide. We invite you to join
us and share the message of love.
If you
have friends in Colorado or who would like to spend
a few days in the incredible Rocky Mountains, why not
send them these invitations and flyers? The Denver people are
marvelously hospitable!
