And so with this in mind we are seeking to reduce our desires to our needs and to provide for these needs with our own labor. We grow some of our food and are developing handcrafts such as woodworking, pottery and baking as a source of income for those things we cannot produce ourselves. We foresee a time of raising sheep for wool to weave cloth and make clothing. We wish to be always moving in the direction of greater fidelity to the nonviolent way of living as taught and lived by Christ. As a family we can move only so far in that direction.
Nonviolent living requires a community effort.
We would like to be in contact with others who have a calling in the same directions. Deacon Mark wrote about building their home in IC4.
