On the way to work this morning, we heard two stories from Michigan Public Radio that sparked connections for me with the Huss School project. One was about an old school building in Detroit that's being converted into artist studios, retail space, offices and more. The other was this week's edition in a...

Last weekend (as many of you know), a film class from Calvin College visited Three Rivers to film a short promotional video for Imagining Space and a short, original film with Huss School as the shoot location. Overall, the experience seems to have been a great success! The students had a great time in Three...

We already linked to Bruce Snook's article for the River Country Journal, but the local radio station and the Three Rivers Commercial-News have picked up the story as well (thanks, Elena!). The past few days have been a ton of work for the students and their professor, Daniel Garcia, but they look like they're having a...

We'll be hosting a film class and a spring break trip--both from Calvin College--at Huss in the next few months and we're going to do quite a bit of preparation if we're to be properly hospitable. The school is currently winterized (no heat, no running water), so we're going to treat it a bit...

We've sent out a few e-mails requesting end-of-year donations, but it probably doesn't hurt to mention it here, too. We're hoping to raise an additional $2,000 by the end of the year to help cover Huss expenses for the first several months of 2010 (mortgage, insurance and electric) and it looks like we've still...

One: Watch! Wait! The day of God is at hand! All: Like the bud on a tree, God's possibilities are about to blossom! One: Stay awake! The reign of God is very near. All: We are here, watching and waiting with hope. All: May God bring justice to all people. May God's...

Even in the midst of great pain, Lord, I praise you for that which is. I will not refuse this grief Or close myself to this anguish. Let shallow men pray for ease: "Comfort us; shield us from sorrow." I pray for whatever you send me, and I ask to receive it as your gift. You have put a joy in my heart greater...

On Friday, June 12, we closed on Huss School. On Tuesday, June 16, Rob and I hit the road for a two-week speaking tour. The two weeks since our return from the tour have been a whirlwind of trying to catch up and stay on top of the many projects that have converged...
