We want to get the word out about this upcoming program co-led by Sister Confianza, a nun in Honduras, and Frank Granshaw, a geoscientist in Portland, OR.  Both were raised Methodist and are currently active in the Society of Friends (Quakers).  Please share with people and groups who may be interested. Thanks!

Made in God’s Green Image
With Sister Confianza del Señor and Frank Granshaw

May 5 to June 2, 2022
A weekly online series of five 90-minute sessions through Ben Lomond Quaker Center
Thursdays at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time, 1 p.m. Eastern Time

Creation stories in the Bible describe a God who creates, tends, and takes joy in the natural world. Genesis 1:26 says that humans are made in God's image. How do we live that out? In the course of the program, we’ll explore relevant Bible passages, celebrate nature, and learn some of the science of climate change. Participants will have the opportunity to share thoughts and experiences around environmental issues and take steps toward climate mitigation and resilience. We’ll also hear creative solutions from around the world, including rural Honduras where Sister Confianza lives, and Frank’s experience as a COP-26 observer for Quaker Earthcare Witness. 

Registration open soon at www.quakercenter.org
