In the Wild: a time for spirituality in nature for all ages
During In the Wild people ages 3 to 83 (or so), gather once a month outside to pay attention to nature. Come join us!
Usually we meet on the church lawn, and our themes and activities vary (see later in this post for some previous themes). This is a wonderful opportunity to pay attention to the sacredness of what is around us – in the world we experience with our senses and within each other – and there are opportunities for intergenerational conversations.
Save the date for our next four In the Wild gatherings, each at 9:30am on the Church Lawn, snow, rain, or shine!
Sunday, February 26th
Sunday, March 26th
Sunday, April 23rd
Sunday, May 28th
Remember to dress for the weather!
Past activities include:
creating a labyrinth with snow, leaves, twigs, and spruce cones (see the photos on this post!)

planting seeds in the spring to take home for our gardens
a summer picnic and scavenger hunt
a Winter Solstice worship with hot apple cider
planting wildflowers, particularly milkweed and others that support pollinators, on our church grounds
