A Conversation

Dear Emergent Village - Vilnius Cohort,

I would like to invite you to our first official conversation. The theme will be:

“The Mission of the Church: ways of expressing the missional calling of the church”

The location will be in Vilnus at “Katpėdėlė“ on P. Lukšio g. 34 (Across from Hyper-Rimi in Žirmūnai. The restaurant is located on the east side of the Senukai parking lot) on Saturday, March 3, 2007 from 10:00 to 12:00. You can stay longer if you like and talk but I want you to know that there is a beginning and an ending time. We will be eating breakfast or drinking coffee(s).

I hope to see you there!

David

Postmodernity: Are the Baltics There Yet?

How postmodern are the Baltics in general and Lithuania in particular?

What are the evidences that we are actually in postmodernity?

How has being a part of the Soviet Union affected postmodernity in the Baltics and Lithuania? I heard someone say once that the 20th century's experiment with Communism was the pinnacle of the modernity. I would particularly like to hear from those of you who are native to the Baltics on this point.

Are the Baltics going postmodern faster than the US?

Is postmodernity different here than in western Europe or the US? How so?

Can someone tell me what postmodernity looks like in our context?

On a side note, what would you think of getting together on Saturday, February 10th for our first "conversation?" I am flexible on the date. Let me know.
