Weekend Workshops on Ecotheology
Join us for a great weekend workshop on “Green Theology”, April 29 and 30!
Friday evening Dr. Mike Hogue, Meadville Professor and Templeton Prize winner, will lead us in a discussion of the environmental crisis as a fundamental religious issue. On Saturday Karen will lead a workshop, offer another short talk, and then a second workshop. The first workshop will have a moral or ethical focus. We will think together through the ecojustice principles discussed at the Friday night talk, asking questions about the virtues and practices those principles would require in order to be realized. The purpose of this first workshop is to help participants to develop a personal ecojustice mission statement. Following the first workshop on Saturday morning, Karen will offer another short talk that will bridge over to the Saturday afternoon workshop. This talk and its complementary workshop will help participants to understand and develop a theological frame for the ecojustice mission statements they developed earlier. The whole of the day will be primarily discussion based.
Everyone is welcome! Lunch will be provided for Saturday’s sessions. Questions? Talk to Karen Stoyanoff or Mike Harmanos. Sign up at the OCUUC Church office or by email at green
