Organizational Opportunity
To welcome people as pilgrims with their faith traditions into active participation with today’s changing world. Faiths are relevant today—they inform opportunities for our tomorrow.
So, let’s use designated places now in common ownership for spiritual gathering (parks & preserves, rivers & oceans, atmosphere & aspirations) plus refugia titled by holy tradition (pilgrimages & sanctuaries). To celebrate and understand Creation. From these to reach out re-committed in action to grow justice for peoples and planet. The opportunity is to foster a congregation of human diversity around what has brought us together: Creation.
Human awareness today appears to see contradiction between modern knowledge (from history and science) with the ancient understandings of faith informed by spiritual revelation.

Pilgrim Of the World posits that ancient faiths are not negated by modern scholarship. One feature of that scholarship that we engage each day as pilgrims is understanding how revelations happen through what and where we go in the world. Emerging in self-assembly then from pre-existing concepts is transforming understanding—and our collaborating paths forward.
This is how those earlier faiths grew. This is how we can continue today.
