Descendants Day06/27/2010 04:00 p.m. – 08:00 p.m. @ Dakota Center Community Garden, 33 Barnett St., Dayton Every year, Creation Connection hosts an interfaith gathering to pray and educate around an issue of environmental justice. Descendants Day emphasizes Loving Your Neighbor Through Time, that is, reflecting on the importance of our choices on the lives of future generations. We share a meal and spend time in fun and fellowship as well.
Our theme for 2010 is “Urban Food Prospects and Possibilities.” Planning has already begun - and you’re welcome to join us. Next planning meeting is January 12, 2010 at Christ Episcopal Church. Contact msgmeiner@yahoo.com for more information.
Previous years have found us at such diverse locations as the river’s edge, a gravel pit, a landfill, a Boy Scout camp, and the site of a proposed big box store.In 2009, we met at Chaminade-Julienne High School, took a walk to the old train station, and prayed for equitable and sustainable mass transit for our region.
Our time together each year is a time of fellowship, as we gather for a meal. Please bring a covered dish, your own place setting, and lawn chair. Get to know others in the community who share a love of God’s creation!
