A Different Kind of Sunday Morning –
Prayer Vigil for the Care of Creation - July 21 - "clean water for all"
PLEASE NOTE THE DATE CHANGE.
Our meditation service (in the style of the community of Taizé) has been gathering momentum as people come together to pray for the Earth. On June 23, we focused on access to clean water as a human right, and we used many resources from the UN's "World Water Day" and also the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee. THe next service will be on July 21, and will incorporate oceans and sea life as part of our water focus.
While our service is in this style of Taizé - it is not specifically Christian. The readings and prayers are taken from many different sources and spiritual traditions, and our hope is that ALL people desiring to hold a sacred space for meditation and prayer will gather with us.
Our focus is the good gift of creation and our Mother Earth. We unite to pray for the urgent need to find solutions to the urgent climate crises facing our common home.
The general outline of our time together is:
You will also experience:
If you have never experienced this sort of service before, no worries. It is easy to follow and the singing leads you to a place of meditation and mindfulness. Or you don't have to sing at all. Plan ahead.
Our upcoming dates are below (please note that not all are "4th" Sunday dates due to various calendar conflicts):
