A Chant in preparation for Earth Day
Twinkle shared this chant in today’s UU Waterville church service during the “Dirt Communion” in preparation for Earth Day.
I am the Earth in the air I breathe
I am the Earth in the water stream
I am the Earth in the fire’s heat
I am the Earth in my heart beat
I am the Earth in her wildest seas
I am the Earth in her springtime dreams
I am the Earth in her falling leaves
I am the Earth when moonlight gleams

“ArtSeek”
“Sacred Sisterhood Retreat”
and
“Shadow and Light Retreat”
We will keep you posted. In the meantime, know that if you have requested these, you are already on the list. And feel free to message again should you wish to confirm, or to add yourself to our waitlist!
Happy International Women’s Day 2024
