Lenten Study
Thursday Evenings- March 1 - March
29, 2012 at 7:00 p.m.
“Touch the Earth Lightly: Living Simply and
Compassionately”
In this study we
will view and discuss a variety of DVD’s
such as “Food, Inc.” which describes the ways in which our food is grown, how
animals are treated in order to provide meat for us to eat, and how factory
farming affects the environment and “Denim Blue” which gives us an inside look
at the life of the workers in a factory in China that makes the clothing we
wear everyday. We will also explore the ways in which our daily living affects
the beautiful planet God has given us as our home by considering our “carbon
footprints.”
On Thursday, March
29, we will share a vegetarian meal prepared by Rev. Marcia and other
hosts/cooks, along with a cooking lesson. (Freewill offering to defray costs
requested.)
