On Saturday, March 3, 2007 on the evening of the Full Moon, a special
ceremony will take place in the ballroom of the Masonic Center in downtown
Madison, Wisconsin.

The Cosmic Celebration, facilitated by social justice
activist-theologian-ecopriest Matthew Fox and others, is an experiential
multi-media ritual with chanting, poetry, singing, drumming, and dancing.
Other presenters include Selena Fox of Circle Sanctuary, Pete Calgaro and
the Imagination Choir, the spiritual singing group Jaya, and puppeteers from
Minneapolis who will be moving life-size puppets of Ghandi, Elizabeth Cady
Stanton, Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, John Lennon, and Our Lady of
Guadeloupe during the rite.

Circle Sanctuary is among the many groups supporting this event, which is
being organized by Unity of Madison.

Laurie is coordinating Circle Sanctuary drumming for this event as well as
serving as our community's liaison with the ritual organizers. Joey is
coordinating Circle Sanctuary's display in the exhibit area and the
West/Water altar for the ceremony.

Want to drum for the ritual? Contact Laurie as soon as possible -- email
her: om_siahdh@hotmail.com with a cc to: circle@circlesanctuary.org. You
will need to be present at the rehearsal at 2 pm on Saturday as well as the
ceremony itself.

Whether you volunteer to be a drummer or not, if you plan to attend, please
let us know so we can pass on any additional information to you that we may
receive. Email: circle@circlesanctuary.org with Cosmic Celebration in the
subject line.

Matthew Fox is the founder of the University of Creation Spirituality. Now
an Episcopal priest (formerly Roman Catholic), he is well known for his

Sunday, Feb. 28 at 2:00 pm. So please ignore the site announced in
the post to this list yesterday. Stough Park is on Lockheed View Dr.
in Burbank, CA,--maps and directions can be found at

Hope to see you there!

Blessings of fellowship,
