I will be co-teaching two weeklong Ghost Ranch seminars in July 2012. Both will have a writing element to them. The first, from July 9 to 15, will be "As Death Nears: Preparing for the End of Life." My co-teacher will be Dr. Nancy Tilson-Mallett, a former member of my congregation who now is a hospitalist physician on Cape Cod as well as an artist. For more information and to register, click here.
The second, from July 16-22, will be "The Questions of Forgiveness: Writing Toward Wholeness." My co-teacher will be Doug Hundley, an elder at my church who also is a writer and speaker and who for several years has offered a series of classes he calls "The Forgiveness Café."

Click on this Ghost Ranch link for information about this national Presbyterian conference center in northern New Mexico, about an hour north of Santa Fe in the beautiful red rock hills that Georgia O'Keeffe painted so often.
I hope my photo here from Ghost Ranch gives you at least a taste of what you can expect there.
Classes typically meet each morning, Tuesday through Saturday, from 9 until noon and each evening from 7 to 8:30. It's a wonderful, relaxed-but-stimulating atmosphere.
And, no, you don't have to be a Presbyterian to join us. People of any faith, and none, are welcome. If you have questions, e-mail me at wtammeus@kc.rr.com.
I would sure like to be in that class at Ghost Ranch. Of course, none of knows what will take place in the next year. I live in Albuquerque and am familiar with the Ranch.
