The theme this year is 'Let Peace and Justice Flow'

Prophet Amos cries out “But let justice roll on like a river,
righteousness like a never-failing stream!” (Amos 5: 24)

You can learn more about it here.

When you come into the sanctuary, you will notice that we have intentioanlly tried to make the aisle of our church look like a river. And we have hung two beautiful images of water on the wall behind the altar by St. Anne's member Cedric Tetzel. 

As with last year, each week has a theme and we will be offering some ways that enable us to meaningfully participate in the season. If all goes according to plan, it will look like this:

~ Week of ~   

September 3: Pray. We will have an interactive prayer response in our liturgy.

September 10: Learn. We will be hosting a movie night with popcorn to watch the documentary 2040 in the side chapel on Tuesday, September 12, 2023.

September 17, Act we will head out to the dyke at the end of Francis Rd on Saturday, September 23rd to participate in a shore line clean up. Meet at the parking lot at the end of Francis Rd before the dyke trail entrance at 10am.

September 24, Advocate we will offer some simple actions that each of us can take to advocate for the planet.

October 1, Bless - we are going to celebrate St. Francis and bless and give thanks for our animal companions to close out this season.

We hope you will consider joining us for all or some of this season as we celebrate creation and find ways to live into our baptismal call to strive to safeguard the integrity of God's creation, and respect, sustain and renew the life of the Earth.

If you would like to participate in the planning or implementation of any of these special activities, please contact the church office.
