Joint Ministry Potluck: Beekeeping Ministry & QuiC
SUNDAY, January 11, 12:30 P.M. (following the 11:00 a.m. service), in Bloedel Hall.
RSVP to queerinchrist@saintmarks.org requested.
Queer in Christ ministry will join the Beekeeping Ministry for a Potluck in Bloedel Hall on January 11 to listen to a podcast featuring the late environmentalist and “deep ecology” scholar Joanna Macy, followed by a discussion. This facilitated cross-ministry conversation will draw insights from the podcast to reflect on the life and death cycle of bees as a powerful framework and guide for human relationships. The discussion will highlight how working with bees is a labor of love, full of both joy and grief as it relates to the impact of the climate crisis. Joanna’s pioneering work gives us a framework to sit with, honor, and ultimately transform our feelings of grief, anger, and overwhelm from the injustices caused by climate change into empowered, inspired action. This gathering is open anyone interested engaging with the honeybee on any level, including holding them in prayer.
RSVP appreciated, please bring something to share.
