    Praise God – I had been looking for such a network. My husband, my 4-week-old baby, and I live in intentional Christian community with another young family. We are looking for ways to live more simply. Also, it would be awesome to connect to other people living in intentional community like us.

    Long-time members of the Life Style Movement (pre PCs), we are writing a series on green living for our Diocesan mag (tho not Anglicans). This time our 400 word articles intends to cover Life Style and Breathe…. any ideas on how you guys would like to be presented?
