Voices for Earth Justice



Voices for Earth Justice and First Unitarian of Detroit

invite you to:

An Interfaith Winter Solstice Celebration

WHEN:  Wednesday, December 21, 2011, 6:00 PM

WHAT : We invite you to join us in remembering our deep connection to the movements of the sun in this season of the celebration of LIGHT.

WHY:  Since the dawn of humanity, people have gathered around fires and candles on the longest night of the year to ignite their hope for a bright future. In modern times, we have sometimes lost touch with the cycles of nature, so we gather together again to deepen our connections with nature and each other.

WHERE: Unitarian Universalist Congregation, 4605 Cass Ave. (and Forest), Detroit. There is parking behind the building---look for signs.                                                      

COST: None, refreshments will be served, and donations for food accepted.          E-mail voices4earth@juno.com, or call 248-351-9001 for directions or more information.

    


Where on Earth are we going?

 

And what can we do about it?

 

The Awakening the Dreamer

Changing the Dream Symposium is a

profound inquiry into a bold vision:

to bring forth an environmentally

sustainable, spiritually fulfilling and

socially just human presence on Earth.

 

If you are ready to explore what this vision means

for you, and the opportunity to create an inspiring future, we invite you to attend.

 

“This has given me the purpose and drive to change my life.

 Everyone working for or wanting a better world must see this.”
- JS, Concord, CA.

 

Saturday, February 4, 2012, 8:30 a.m.– 3:00 p.m.
