Pumpkin Spice Liturgy: A Meal Under the Harvest Moon // WED OCT 18 @ 6:30PM // Main Hall // A lunar celebration of the seasons and four directions? Isn’t that a bit… pagan? All the best Christian rituals are. In our modern day Christianity we’re largely out of synch with the
natural world, but the very early traditions of our faith are deeply
entwined with earthy roots. On this night we’ll celebrate creation and
Creator. Our journey through the four seasons (from our Western
perspective, anyway) will also be a journey through four practices:
winter & contrition, spring & blessing, summer & enjoyment,
autumn & generosity. The meal is potluck and VEGETARIAN so bring something harvesty to share.
