Remembering The Trees – The Cross, The Lynching Trees, and The Amazon Forest Cl\u00e1udio Carvalhaes   “All important ideas must include the trees, the mountains, and the rivers.”\u00a0 Mary Oliver   I didn\u2019t know anything about trees until I met Wonder. Wonder lives at Adams Ricci Park in Enola, a very small town in Central Pennsylvania. She is next to this beautiful shallow and meandering creek called Conodoguinet, one of the hundred tributaries of the Susquehanna River, namely the oldest river on earth, dating circa 320-340 million years. Located in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States, the Susquehanna river… <\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>

The Wells Sermons are\u00a0 the three sermons that I preached at the Ministers Week- February 2023 Conference at Brite Divinity School.       SERMON ONE – Inventory – Looking Back   Ecclesiastes 7:10 Do not say, \u2018Why were the former days better than these?\u2019 \u00a0\u00a0 For it is not from wisdom that you ask this. \u00a0 Lamentations 3: 21 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 But this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope.   May the peace of Jesus be with you all.

\r\n How a Social Ritual Can Change People and Society? The Case of the Inauguration of Lula in Brazil<\/a>\r\n <\/div>\r\n
\r\n

Yesterday I wept like I haven\u2019t wept for a long time. It was an oceanic type of weeping, one that was wider than the whole world. A cry that made me believe again in things I had given up\u2026 I went to bed late because I couldn\u2019t stop weeping. And all of that was because of the inauguration of Brazil\u2019s new president: Lula, Luis In\u00e1cio Lula da Silva. Let me tell you why. Lula has become the president of Brazil for the third time and the inauguration had a rite of passage where Lula was becoming the president of Brazil.… <\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>

Pel\u00e9 died yesterday and the worlds heartbeat stopped beating for a little for me. I am not old enough to have seen Pel\u00e9 play in his fulness. When Brazil won the World Cup in Mexico with the most mesmerizing soccer team in history, I was one year old. But I am old enough to remember him playing at Cosmos and finishing his career saying to a packed stadium in New York City: \u201crepeat after me: Love Love Love.\u201d As I write from New York, I can feel his words echoing in my memory. Pel\u00e9 (and Corinthians) made my childhood be… <\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>
