Mary Tinney

(Sister) Mary Tinney is the instigator and current facilitator of a community network called Earth Link. She is a member of a Religious Congregation, the Sisters of Mercy, who support and endorse Earth Link. She has a background in secondary education especially Religious Education and has been in leadership roles in the Sisters of Mercy where her planning and facilitation skills were called upon. Having worked at the community level in the area of ecospirituality since 2000, Mary is well aware that there is a need for greater integration of cosmology, spirituality and emerging theological trends. To that end, she graduated in 2018 with a PhD in theology. That thesis has been revamped into this book to make the work accessible for a general readership.
