It's a Process

We hope to achieve our goal of restoring the Garden by connecting small communities with other small communities so we can share resources and better care for one another.

We get our priorities straight. 

First, the community comes before the individual. We love God with all our hearts, all our strength.

Second, we try really hard to enhance the lives of the people around us. We love one another and our neighbors as Jesus has loved us.

All of that may require humility, sacrifice, forgiveness.

Recognize that there is a better way.

Witness by example and teaching

Gradually move from individual to collective ownership beginning with a common table, have everything in common. Move from a transactional economy towards a gift economy. Membership is not a lease and it is not a job. Everyone contribute as they are able. Everyone receive as they have need.

Radical discipleship, devote ourselves to the teaching of the apostles.

Ensure vision alignment through long and thorough member initiation process. Membership is not a right, but a privilege.

Equip members with skills needed to benefit of the community.

Reduce reliance on outside sources for basic needs such as food, clothing, energy, etc.
