Earth Sabbath Celebrations

Topic: Environment
Type: Devotional / For Reflection

Growing out of the Earth Contemplations held in Asheville in 2009-2010, the Earth Sabbath Celebrations are contemplative and experiential services which utilize community building exercises, readings from many faith traditions, music, video, ritual, movement, chant, guided meditation and other modalities to reach deep into the grief and love we feel for our Earth and help both salve and energize our spirits so we can continue the work of restoration and repair of and with all Life.

Earth Sabbath Celebrations are inherently community based, so most of the program will reflect your own local community’s needs, interests, and culture. We believe, however, that there are some essential elements that should be included in any NC IPL Earth Sabbath Celebrations.
