August 8-15


The Connections program got underway on Saturday. In the course of the week, the number of participants grew from an initial 40 or so over the weekend up to nearly 60 by Wednesday evening. There was a mix of old and new participants, and many good projects for everyone to engage with.

On Tuesday, there was a boat trip to nearby Sucia and Patos Islands. Similar trips have been part of Connections in the past. This year it only came together at the last minute and was a surprise for some.

Morning discussion was anchored by David Toren for the first few days. Theosophical Society President Tim Boyd and his wife Lily arrived on Tuesday and the following morning Tim initiated a discussion on elements of the spiritual life.
