With the theme of &#8220;Meeting Crises as we enter the new  Century&#8221; about 250 people from the English speaking world (and other  countries) came to gether in early August at the Goetheanum. This was a  week preceded by a simultaneous reading in English and presentation of  the four Mystery Dramas. A number of guests took this opportunity to  experience the new production of the Dramas. From the reports it was  apparantly quite a success. The conference too, with extraordinarily  high quality and balanced artistic events, rich lecture content and  diverse workshops allowed participants to meet each other and experience  the Goetheanum at its best. To have the Goetheanum (mostly) transformed  into an English speaking center for this week, and to enjoy the  prevailing warm and collegial mood, was an experience many commented  positively on. In short, it was an appreciated and special event.<\/span><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: small;\">This  autumn there will be many tasks, some of them quite challenging, to  turn towards. With Michaelmas a few short weeks away, we enter the  &#8220;season&#8221; with enthusiasm for our tasks and gratitude for what we are  allowed to do. With best wishes for Michaelmas and the beginnings that  it may bring.<\/span><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Sincerely<\/span><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Cornelius Pietzner<\/span><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: small;\">for the Executive Council<\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Friends,The summer draws gradually to a close.
