Faith Formation Class A new series begins March 1st in our adult education class – Sundays at 9 am. The class will last for 3 Sundays and is entitled “Giving up Plastic for Lent?”. We will discuss not only the use of plastic but many other subjects in the realm of Creation Care. The goal is to inform and share information so that each class member can evaluate for themselves what steps they are taking and might commit to take in their future walk to honor God’s creation. Source books are: How to Give Up Plastics by Will McCallum and 101 Ways to Go Zero Waste by Kathryn Kellogg.
“You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace, the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all of the trees of the field will clap their hands.” Isaiah 55:12.
