FLOWER COMMUNION: "PRAISE CREATION!"
Rev. Jessica Purple Rodela
Music: Stephen Preece
Environmentalist activist James Thornton declares us to be on the cusp of history, "poised to become a new species . . . so different in our power and perspective that . . . our descendants will merit a new name: Homo gaians". Let's imagine the possibilities together!
Please bring flowers for the children’s parade, and stay afterwards to join our annual Picnic Potluck!

Rev. Jessica Purple Rodela and The Whatevers Youth Group
