From South Africa to Washington State, Roger Hudson is searching out better ways to live in "friendship — with God, people, and all creation." A practitioner of Permaculture Design, he is currently developing a sustainable food production system of veggies, fruit, herbs, chickens and flowers in his yard. The garden, and all things creating the circular economy [Roger drives a Tesla Model 3 called "Never has...," for "Never has visited a gas station and never will"], help him connect with the Creator. His favorite quote: "In the beginning was the pattern, and the pattern was with God, and the pattern was God." Roger recently retired from Covenant United Methodist Church in north Spokane and is currently involved with New Story Spokane, nonviolence and creation care.
