From the Edge

Life has way of seeming formulaic at times. We can assume our experience has been photocopied, so to speak, and the experiences of others, must be the same.

Edgies’ Reflections – Hannah Martinez

Edge is about cultural experience. At first visiting a foreign country can cause us to focus on the differences in a negative way by comparing them to what we are used to and consider normal.

Edgies’ Reflections – Friendships

Edgies’ Reflections – Kristin Walti

Edge Project is not just an outward facing program, meaning it’s all about outreach; Edge is designed to take the individual through a deeply moving inner journey as well. The beauty of Edge is it’s lack of definition. What I mean is that the Edge experience is defined by each Edgies, individually, very intimately. Kristin […]

I was talking with a couple at church today about vacations. They had made the mistake – more than once – of joining a cruise for the elderly. While the couple is in their 60’s, they are very young at heart and said in order to keep their sanity, they had to make a contest out of finding […]
