This Sunday: Sacred Earth Service at Edgerton Park

This Sunday we will offer another service of Sacred Earth Evening Prayer at Edgerton Park (gather at the Edgehill Road entrance).

In the words of St. Thomas Aquinas, “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 in the park to enjoy the beauty of spring with prayer.
