<p>I'm creating a Biblical garden to help preserve the endangered Torchwood order of trees. The ones with fragrant oily resin, and most specifically - &nbsp;Frankincense. &nbsp;later when the trees mature, the sales from this effort - the seedlings, saplings, oil, other botanical products, and art - will serve to help endangered Children.</p> <p>You could say I'm a&nbsp;"green" theologian creating an outdoor sanctuary. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;I'm an ordained minister, minister, artist, writer, an mother of three grown beautiful daughters, and g-mother to five. I come form a family or educators (and am currently awaiting teacher certification staus with the state of AZ.)</p> <p>My ministry focuses on sustainability: *Sustainable Earth (care of creation) *Sustainable Structures (Archtecture, and Educational platforms) &amp; *Sustainable Lives (children and community.) My Indigogo project draws on these three areas together.&nbsp;</p> <p>The things I value the most are where ever I find expressions of God's saving graces and essential qualities: his&nbsp;unconditional Love, Wisdom, Mercy, Freedom, Innocence <em>("a willingness to remain teachable and be led by what is good and true,&rdquo;)</em> Healing Wholeness, Peace, and the Joy of living a Useful Life, otherwise known as Charity. &nbsp; Ive made these the founding core values at Hometribe.&nbsp;</p> <p>My current heroes: Natralists John (Appleseed) Chapman, John Muir (Sierra Club) George Innes (Landscape painter) and Eliza Lovell Tibbets (Mother of the Citrus Industry - seedless navel orange)&nbsp;who all considered themselves Swedenborgian missionaires, and Ambassador of goodwill and possibility, Hellen Keller, who understood the impact and power that the natural world has on our senses ans spirit.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
