RevL Takes Up Cyberspace Residence: Global-Internet Housewarming Begins Now

Well, it has finally happened, Beloved. RevL, your Global Pastor, Bridgebuilder, Catalyst, Mayor of 53rd, 55th and 57th Streets in Chicago and on and on is finally taking up cyber-residence in Blog Space. I had to ask myself, does the Dalai Lama have a blog, or Thich Nhat Hahn, or others? But as Israel of Israel and New Breed invites us to ponder, what "if the disciples had the internet."I can only imagine with the foot soldiers of the US Civil Rights Movement would have done with these internet capabilities. Imagine the reach for Fanie Lou Hamer, Sojourner Truth, the multiplication of the message and ministry of Rev. Harriet Tubman. Or what about the Steve Bikos, the Mandelas and the more. And so we offer up and open these Cyber Doors for this Ubuntu Community, globally and locally.

These days, I feel my life flashing before me. The time at Mizzou, Syracuse University, DePaul, Loyola, Chicago Cares, Women Employed, McCormick Theological Seminary, Students Organized Against Racism, Peer Multicultural Education, and on and on. I am truly thankful. Everything prepares us for our time, what we are called to do, even the trials, the barriers, the blocks, the losses, all strength for the journey, bringing out exactly who you are and what you need to do and be what you are here for. So I am thankful. Thankful mostly for the people, each one of you, I have learned so much. And I know if we can bridge these communities across the waters, share the resources and the wisdom for the healing of the nations, the U.S. and South Africa and across the globe, I know the world will be changed. So join me, in living into the possibilities. I am thankful to be called to this ministry for the masses, church and community without walls, connection of humanity across the waters, across real, imaginary and socially constructed lines. As we each share what is on the inside, the truth of who we are, what we have been created to be, the world will be changed. I pray your joy, peace and empowerment in this time. Join us as we live into the possibilities. Thank you for your prayers, positive energy, financial support and for standing with us! May the blessings of your giving return to you beyond measure. Thank you so much! Blessings, Peace, Joy and Power, Rev. LaDonna M. Sanders, Global Pastor, Public Poet and Founder, The South Africa Ubuntu Project
