Rain, sigh

I am really, really happy it's raining, mostly. We need rain.

It looks like RE Games Day will be scaled back because of it. We'll still be in Waters House, we'll still have games and Circus Yoga and snacks, just inside.

The Spiritual Practice of Play: RE Games Day!



This Sunday marks the end of our regular year in religious education. We'll celebrate with the spiritual practice of PLAY! The deep spiritual value of play is often over looked in our very overextended, time- deficient lives. (There is too, the even more spiritually profound experience of unstructured time- we'll consider that at another point.)

RE Games Day will involve open- ended activities: hula hoops, scarves, jump ropes, balls, bubbles, all valuable tools in our spiritual exploration of play. Christine Carpenter will return to offer an even bigger Circus Yoga experience that will include flying demonstrations and a flying station.

RE Games Day also includes the very profound "snack communion." We will break bread together as we play and celebrate this paradise we are lucky enough to call home: a beautiful place, our blessed and sacred lives.

RE Games Day is for all ages.
