The Word for World is “Forest”
Sunday, February 1, 10:30 am Reilly Yeo, Guest Homilist with Lynne Bonner, Worship Associate In her incredible book “The Word for World is ‘Forest,’” Ursula K. LeGuin says “In diversity is life, and where there’s life there’s hope.” Our forests – particularly old-growth forests of extraordinary complexity – are some of the most diverse ecosystems on Earth. Come celebrate their spiritual richness, and learn what My Climate Plan and other organizations are doing to protect them, restore hope, and restore the sacred balance. Reilly is a co-founder of My Climate Plan, a beneficial membership organization helping people and their communities prepare for and respond to climate change. As an interfaith chaplain, her work addresses the spiritual causes and consequences of climate change, and the larger polycrisis that defines our time. She lives on the unceded territories of the Swenghung, a Lekwungen-speaking people, with her partner Jamie and their two children Avery and Elyse.
