Please help to continue this ministry!
REGISTER NOW FOR NEW SUMMER COURSE Hope and Healing for Creation (CF 206) is a new class at Wesley Seminary and offered for the first time this summer, June 10 – 21. Wesley is among the first seminaries in the country to offer this place-based study of how theology and spirituality meet ecology! Through the study of Scripture, spiritual practice and ecology, students will grow in their understanding of how Christians can relate more intimately with the creation and with the Creator. On-the-ground study and experience of our local Chesapeake Bay ecosystem will provide opportunities to get to know, delight in, and have compassion for, all of our neighbors, from the black bears who live in the headwaters, to the oyster farmers who call the estuary home. Opportunities for spiritual awakening and healing for humans as well as the local natural systems will be explored. This course will meet often in natural places in Wesley’s home ecosystem. The course will be taught by Beth Norcross (www.bethnorcross.com), director of the Green Seminary Initiative and adjunct faculty at Wesley. CF 206: Hope and Healing for Creation is a 2 credit course for students or can be taken for 3 CEU’s for pastors.
