Worship & Celebration
"In these challenging times,it is especially important to consider our spiritual
connection with natureand how that relationship nurtures and sustains us as we seek
to heal the brokenness of the world. We are not called by an external authority, but
by an increased attention to our own inner truth. A healthy Earth-based spirituality
is a way to be fully at home in our lives and on this earth. A strong spirit helps us
to weather the storms of life. For many, that spirit is nurtured by an intimate
connection with nature." ~ Green Sanctuary Program Manual

"It’s About Balance" with Susan Morrisson
September 5, 2010
Our renowned 19th century Unitarian minister and lecturer,
Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “The happiest man is he who learns from nature the lesson
of worship.” In this season of Earth’s Autumnal equinox, there are worthy lessons to
be learned. Like the seasons, we also change and are challenged to maintain our own
sustainability. Susan Morrisson earned her Masters of Divinity in 2009 from Seattle
University, and had many years of worship planning experience at East Shore Unitarian
Church prior to seminary.

Worship and celebration of the Earth can take very many forms and is very personal for many of us. Not only
is the environment a social, economic and political issue that is very public, but it is also a very private
and spiritual path for many as well. Some of us celebrate by attending sermons, sit-ins and other public
events, some of us choose to express our feelings for the Earth through charcoal, photography, ceramics,
oils/acrylics/watercolors, fabric and other mediums.
