Eco-Justice and
Advocacy (with maybe a little gardening) - Eli Redfern
Climate change and
environmental issues disproportionately affect communities that are already
underserved, vulnerable, and marginalized. Given the large scale of these
issues, widely concerted effort is needed to combat these crises on our planet.
We will talk about the importance of an ecological framework rooted in justice,
in addition to the ways in which individuals can make their voices heard and
take action in their neighborhoods, cities, and beyond.

What can you do
now in your daily life to protect creation - Robbie McCord
This will draw from
various resources, both from the Episcopal church and elsewhere. We will focus
on strategies ranging from electricity to food sourcing to even diet.

St. Francis -
Lover of All of God’s Creation - Kathy and Craig Foster
Kathy and Craig went on a
pilgrimage sponsored by the convent of the Transfiguration to Assisi a few
years ago. They will reflect on what they learned about St. Francis during that
time.
