NICANOR PERLAS LAUNCHES HIS LATEST BOOK MISSION POSSIBLE

Nicanor Perlas, a renowned author, global leader, Alternative Nobel Prize awardee, international facilitator and lecturer, environmentalist and integral sustainable development icon will launch his latest book, “MISSION POSSIBLE! Sow Courage; Harvest a New World”, nationwide this year.

The book is a tell-all story of an emerging movement called MISSION and how it is making strides in transforming the way we think about what it truly means to change the world. It illlustrates how personal mastery can empower individuals to act from their highest potential and creativity when helping to rebuild societies.

Bestselling author Neale Donald Walsch, in his latest book, "Storm Before The Calm" cited Perlas and MISSION as doing cutting edge societal threefolding work that is essential to the “creation of humanity’s New Cultural Story”. With this citation, MISSION is introduced worldwide to over a million people who are expected to read Walsch's book.

A digital version of MISSION POSSIBLE, that can be purchased or accessed though the Internet, is also in the making.

MISSION of Imaginals goes Global!!

Imagine a new world! 

Here are the latest tweets from integral sustainable development icon and international lecturer and facilitator Nicanor Perlas on the activities of Mission International. 

"MISSION work has arrived in Finland. Today I just started a 5-day MISSION process with 122 participants from all over Finland. These are students of Snellman College and they are taking courses in art and education. Forget whatever stereotype you may have of Finnish people. The ones here are highly engaged, passionate, articulate, and very concerned about the future of the world." Oct. 4,2011

 

"The MISSION work with the 40 young people from 18 countries ended on a very high, grateful, albeit emotional note yesterday. Long hugs and goodbyes, some tears, heart warming written messages, and tremendous amount of forces released to serve the world. Indeed, as modern science has shown, a new and higher order only emerges at the edge of chaos! Thus it has been." Sweden- Oct. 2,2011 

Mission has a fledgling international node in Germany.
