What do you call a Conference looking into a Christian genre that
 hasn't even been born yet??
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Are you a Christian anarchist (or anarchic Christian) without knowing it??


By the way, the LORD knows Christianity is in urgent need of a fix. (Not rocket science!)

The post-modern era spells Dire Straits for meaningful Christianity.
  (But you won't find a word about it on the Church website. Churches are anything
 but transparent organisations!)
   Tumult at megachurch - Christian Science Monitor predicts megachurch domino effect


Enter a bearded man. SHANE is married with two children. He lives at Gembrook and sometimes chooses to live on Melbourne streets. He had an idea. Steve and Jane approved. It's starts on May 6 AD2012

So  the  first  Christian  Anarchist  weekend  was  birthed.
 
i was at  Loophole Community  when I heard a lady discussing it with Cranky Phil, a former Food-Not-Bombs guru with a thick metal nosering. So I thought I'd publicise this very interesting once-in-a-lifetime gathering.

Here is Shane's  CHRITIANARCHY  flyer

Seeds of a New World

   (Keeping up with anarchist tradition, he has given a wrong email address!)



Gembrook Retreat (NOT a megachurch) is a Quaker-associated
 hilly farm with chestnut trees, flowers and more.
 They encourage  
 The Quakers (aka Society of Friends) is a denomination having home gatherings.

Well...
Main house, Gembrook Retreat
Gembrook is in the Dandenong Ranges outside Melbourne.
 It's past Cockatoo. The historic Puffing Billy steam train 
 now terminates there.
