Spirit at Work presents

Thursday, Sept. 18th, 2008            12:00 - 1:30pm   "Intentional Travel"   as a Road to   Spiritual Fulfillment     with Michael McCarthy   Journalist, Writer & Videographer  "Intentional travelers" consciously wander the world with the goal of leaving it a better place… From creating Spare Change, a "homeless newspaper" which sold a million copies – to launching micro-philanthropy projects in poorer countries – to journeying through the mountains of Tibet to rescue abandoned children, Michael McCarthy has lived an unusual spiritual journey. Michael’s journey started at an early age when he discovered writers like Jack Keroauc. He was soon "on the road" himself, hitchhiking and hopping freights, wandering the world and helping others... In this session, Michael will share stories of some of his amazing global and spiritual adventures. [More about this Session] You don't need to be on an expedition to Borneo; taking the bus to Burnaby is enough. You just have to create the magic that we had as children..." - Michael McCarthy              click here to RSVP  or  phone: 604.685-6560 DATE:           Thursday, Sept. 18, 2008 -- 12:00 - 1:30 pm LOCATION:   Main Floor, Conference Rooms, Terasen Building,                      1111 W.
