This Sunday: Sacred Earth at Edgerton Park

This Sunday and next, we resume our services of Sacred Earth Evening Prayer. Since the forecast seems promising for this upcoming Sunday, we will gather at Edgerton Park (Edgehill Rd. entrance).

As St. Thomas Aquinas wrote, “Creation is the primary and most perfect revelation of the Divine.” Our Sacred Earth service is a time to connect with nature, its beauty, its message, its care. The prayers seek to connect us with the divine expression in creation. It is a place where faith and science meet, where our souls find their home in a way we not always remember, given our lifestyle away from nature. During this prayer time we open our hearts to the richness of nature, like Gerard Manley Hopkins expressed: “What would the world be, once bereft of wet and wilderness? Let them be left, O let them be left, wildness and wet; long live the weeks and the wilderness yet.”

Come and join us at Edgerton Park!
