Eco-Ministry for Life on Earth Course
April 25-29, 2017 - The Chaplaincy Institute, Berkeley, CA
This 4.5 day intensive has been created in response to the deep desire felt by so many of us. This desire – we call it Eco-Ministry – is our soul’s longing to take action, to bear witness and to heal our connection with Earth.
In our time together, practices and presentations will be with West Coast subject-area experts:
Patricia St Onge, M.Div., of Haudenosaunee (Mohawk) and Quebecoise descent, will open our intensive with a Seven Generations' perspective and invitation;
Jesse Ford, a botanist, will present the panarchy model from ecology, showing us how it can be a vehicle for understanding the position on the cycle we are now in;
Tom Rockwell, Arts & Science Educator, and Director of Exhibits at The Exploratorium, will invite us to marry our humanity with science (and vice-versa) as we explore needs, wants and desires in a larger natural and human-made context;
Action leaders from Idle No More, Movement Generation, andJoanna Macy’s The Work that Reconnects, will provide excursions, hands-on practice and/or panel discussions designed to help participants create similar partnerships and projects in our local bio-regions;
Lee Van Ham, Founder of Jubilee Economic Ministries (JEM), will suggest how to provide eco-ministry to humans as we leave the growth economic model and choose Earth-sized practices;
David Mitchell, Ph.D. (Atmospheric Sciences), Meditation teacher and Eco-minister, will draw from an interfaith understanding of cosmic cycles in consciousness, empowering us with strength, faith and meditation practices to restore humanity’s relationship with self, other and Earth.
Along the way, the Dean of The Chaplaincy Institute, Rev. Lauren Van Ham, will invite us to establish and strengthen our eco-ministry vows through ritual, liturgy and small group work.
