Spiritual Renewal with the Seasons: Favorite Poems of Summer
Wednesday, August 14 | 7PM Hybrid
Facilitated by Judy Carr & Friends
Help us celebrate summer with poetry!
We will be reading and discussing poems of Summer on Wednesday, August 14 at 7pm.
Prior to the program, registrants will receive a packet of poems
featuring both classical and contemporary poems to get us started in our discussion.
We will begin the program with a short prayer service in praise of Summer.
We’ll then read our favorite poems that explore themes of Summer,
and you will have the opportunity to read your favorite Summer poem.
It could be a poem about the glorious natural landscapes of Summer,
a favorite Summer activity, or any Summer experience.
All participants are invited to bring their favorite poem of Summer,
either someone else’s or one you have written!
Suggested fee is $15.
Future plans...
Beyond the seasons of nature, we are also hoping to present programs
around the Poetry of Advent and Poetry of Lent
in the upcoming liturgical seasons.
Look for information regarding further offerings in the coming months.
We hope you’ll help us to ensure the continuation of poetry
as an offering among the Center’s repertoire of spiritual practices.
