Cultural Visionary
For his entire adult life, Van of Urantia (1946 - 2025) was dedicated to making the world as it should be – where every man, woman, and child has food, clothing, a home, and not just subsistence-level work, but the tools and assistance to cultivate their unique gifts, talents, and dreams. As founder of one of the largest sustainable communities and ecovillages in the world with multiple artistic organizations and service programs for humankind, Van was putting what some might call a "Utopian" vision into ever-expanding practical applications daily.
The Dawn of Light & Life
There is a vital link between the human need for positive, creative self-expression and the forming of a balanced, sustainable, and evolving culture. As part of Van of Urantia's life as a lightworker, he continued to establish and coordinate nonprofit service programs and organizations that enrich and empower individuals and their communities in order to create a society and culture of higher consciousness.
