2014 Burning Man project participants
AJ
AJ lives in Boston, MA, where he maintains a Christian Science healing practice and works in the administrative offices of The First Church of Christ, Scientist. When he first heard of Burning Man as a teenager, it sounded like the ultimate party, but since studying Christian Science he sees more spiritual depth to the world around him and expects to see that embodied in this event. Now his intentions for going are centered around helpfulness, thoughtfulness, alertness, and learning a ton about life and divine Love. His wife Amanda is happy he is going and is his biggest encourager to get out there and live like a healer. Website: ajkiser.com

John Tyler, CSB
When John Tyler discovered Christian Science as a teenager, he wanted to shout the good news from the rooftops. He soon realized, however, it’s not words so much as selfless loving and healing which attract people to this truth. In his full-time healing practice of over 30 years, he has seen God heal many supposedly incurable cases. He loves sharing his understanding of the Bible and Mary Baker Eddy’s works on Christian Science. More about John here.
Julian
Julian just happened to be around when someone was needed to organize a lecture at Burning Man. Having sent books to the CS Reading Room at Black Rock City in the first year he witnessed the unfoldment of 2 hosted lectures at Red Lightning Camp in the second year and now a full theme camp in the third. He loves Science and would like to launch a CS Incubator to foster innovation and explore new ideas that when proven useful can be offered for adoption by everyone.

Mark A. McClintick
Aloha everyone! My burner name is my self composed Hawaiian name…MAMONALU!
The first three letters are my initials, the O is supposed to have a peace sign in it with the Earth behind it …Hawaii just to the left of the center line of the peace sign and the Americas on the Eastern horizon symbolizing world peace from a Hawaiian perspective, and the Nalu is the Hawaiian word for wave…thus my Hawaiian Burner name MAMONALU stands for the Mark Andrew McClintick World Peace Wave! I am married to my Beloved Rachel Anna McClintick for four years now! We are planting our Aloha Garden Of Peace on the Big Island of Hawaii!!
