Where in nature do you go to connect with God? Where do you experience the artistic hand of God? What setting lifts your spirit?
On Earth Day 2027, we’ll pause to notice the beauty and wonder of creation and reflect on the ways the natural world can draw us more deeply into relationship with God. Together, we’ll explore images of creation found throughout scripture, allowing these sacred stories and images to awaken our own sense of wonder, gratitude, and connection with the Earth.
Our time together will include input, faith sharing, creative processing, and prayer. Through reflection and creative expression, we’ll make space to notice what creation is revealing to us and to explore the ways God’s presence can be encountered in the world around us.
Come ready to look, listen, imagine, and pray—with the Earth as our companion.
*Includes a light lunch..
