The western Joshua tree has historical and regional value to communities out west where Joshua trees have existed for over 2 million years. But, their future is uncertain. Their long-term survival has been challenged by a number of climate-related issues. The trees are only found in desert conditions and most of them are in the U.S. West and Southwest.

August 9 is International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples, recognizing the nearly 500 million Indigenous Peoples in 90 courntries across the globe where they have long protected their lands and waters guided by deep connections to place, culture, and reciprocity with nature. They collectively manage at least 1/4 of the world's lands and vast stretches of water and marine habitats. Researchers have found that the total numbers of birds, mammals, amphibians, and reptiles were the highest on lands managed or co-managed by Indigenous communities in Australia, Brazil, and Canada. "In light of this, collaborating with Indigenous governments, communities and organizations can help to conserve biodiversity as well as support Indigenous rights to land, sustainable resource use and well-being."

Sacred Earth: Growing Beloved Community in an Expanding Universe with Cosmologist Brian Swimme, PhD![]()

Join a conversation with Bishop Marc Andrus, Dr. M. Paloma Pavel, and Professor Brian Swimme, Cosmologist and Astrophysicist, as they explore RELATIONSHIP being the fundamental building block of an ever more diverse cosmos. Dr. Swimme is the author of The Hidden Heart of the Cosmosand The Universe is a Green Dragon. He is co-author of several books including The Universe Story with Fr. Thomas Berry and The Journey of the Universe, with Mary Evelyn Tucker. Swimme is also the creator of three educational video series: "Canticle to the Cosmos," "Earth's Imagination," and "The Powers of the Universe." He was also cocreator of the Emmy Award-winning PBS documentary Journey of the Universe with The Human Energy Project. His newest book, Cosmogenesis: An Unveiling of the Expanding Universe, reveals the completely giving nature of the Universe, a cosmic love that allows the future to emerge, and our alignment with that nature as we give ourselves completely to whatever service we provide for our fellow beings. We learn that there is no such thing as “lifeless matter.” Matter, in its very structure and dynamism, generates life. As Brian’s mentor Fr. Thomas Berry stated: “The universe is a communion of subjects, not a collection of objects.”![]()
Brian collaborated with his mentor to discover differentiation as the first law of the cosmos, while sameness is a cosmic crime. We are gifted at birth with a quantum of energy and are asked only to use it to express uniquely who we really are. The third law is that the universe conspires to build communities. Come March 22 to join Brian Swimme and our guest musician and vocal activist, Melanie DeMore, who states: “Life is for the seeking and sharing of light, joy, and deep love for what moves you.” When she comes your way, her energy will charge the very air you breathe like a meteor shower, so get ready to rise up! Click here to see her amazing performance of her song “I am Sending You Light.”![]()
