Associated Parishes for Liturgy and Mission, 7 Faulkner Street, Ayer, MA
Join us for a day of worship, reflection, learning, and feasting to explore ways to bring our worship tradition alive in a time of climate crisis. How can our prayer—at home, at church, and in nature— reknit our relationship with the earth and build our resilience and hope? We will meet at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church and spend part of our day at a pocket forest in Ayer. Sponsored by Associated Parishes for Liturgy and Mission and open to everyone in Province I & II, as well as the ELCA New England Synod.
