The Gift of Joy and Wonder
Turning in Lent Toward the Glory of Creation
Wednesday Evenings: March 9 to April 3
​
In the language of the Bible, the word “repent” means to “turn.” This year’s Lenten study will turn toward beauty, awe and wonder, led by the Rev. Norman MacLeod. These hours will be dedicated to remembering, seeing, learning about and celebrating God’s Earth, of which we are made. We will explore and celebrate the glory of God as we know it in Rhode Island and beyond. We will discuss our role as Christians to care for “this fragile earth, our island home.”
The study will begin Wednesday, March 9 at 7 p.m. on Zoom. Each session will close by 8 p.m. Each week will have a theme. As this will be a series on Zoom, participants from other faith communities have been invited to join us. The second week, there will be no Zoom session. Please see below.
