Upcoming Events and Programs:
Inspired Conversations: Climate Crisis
Friday, February 21 at 7pm
FREE PRESENTATION & CONVERSATION: “The Spirituality and Ethics of the Climate Crisis” with Rev. Dr. Bill Phipps .
Climate change is no longer a four letter word – it is a spiritual and ethical matter. It prompts compelling questions about our interdependence with all life, particularly our relationship with our planetary home. Climate change has a dramatic influence on all dimensions of our life, challenging our fundamental values, including hyper- consumption, relationships with each other and the Earth, the design of our cities and neighbourhoods, and how we understand the gift of Creation. Join Rev. Nick Coates of Red Deer Lake United Church and internationally- known speaker, activist, minister, and former head of the United Church Rev. Dr. Bill Phipps for an evening of inspired conversations on why the climate crisis is a spiritual issue we must address.
