"When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free." - Wendell Berry
🌿Join us this Saturday, September 13th as we seek the peace of wild things together at our Season of Creation Chaparral Chapel Hike!
🌾We'll meet at Felicita Park in Escondido (742 Clarence Ln, Escondido CA 92029) at 1pm for a brief reflection and ritual, followed by a 1.5 contemplative nature walk, concluding with sharing Communion under the open skies.
🌳Parking is $5. All ages and leashed dogs are welcome. Feel free to DM to RSVP or with any questions!
