“Loving Our Lawns: Christian Ethics and a Theology of Green Space”

This presentation is an invitation to see creation through the most immediate lens available to most of us: our lawns, yards, porches, and green spaces. We will discuss where cultural ideas about lawns originated, and what it means to think about ourselves and our yards as fellow creatures. We will also learn how to heal local ecologies through concrete practices in our own backyards.

Kindergarten–5th grade students are invited to join Wednesday Worship in the chapel, featuring singing, a Bible lesson, prayer, and age grade activities. We have childcare available for children ages 0-4 in the baby and toddler worship care rooms.
