This month we're part of the summer service calendar at All Souls Community Church. Join this generous community as we speak words of gratitude to the Natural World together.
NOTE THE LATER START TIME OF 11:00 AM.
The purpose of this gratitude practice is to experience a way of acknowledging the natural world, greeting all living things, and showing gratitude. This practice is encouraged by the Haudenosaunee, as written by John Stokes, that we “share in these words, that our concentrated attention might help us rediscover our balance, respect, and oneness with Nature.”
Monthly meetings are open to everyone of all ages.
The "Thanksgiving Address: Greetings to the Natural World" pocket book will guide the heart of the practice. This month, the program is underwritten by All Souls Community Church, so everyone in attendance will receive a copy of the pocket book at no charge.
By sharing this experience, our hope is that individuals may experience a practice of connecting with Nature that expresses gratitude and greetings and may remind us to relate with the Natural World with respect, acceptance, and compassion for all beings.
Registration is not necessary for this free event.
