ACKNOWLEDGING THE LAND
A three-part series following the 9:30 service
Garth Myers, Leader
October 15: Indigenous Wethersfield Then and Now
November 12: Land Acknowledgments in Our Area
December 10: Land Acknowledgments in the Episcopal Church in the US and Connecticut
Land acknowledgment statements are becoming common for churches, colleges and universities and other institutions, in the US and around the world. They are seen as a means of coming to grips with both the past and present injustices and harms in settler colonialism, imperialism, and capitalism toward Indigenous peoples. What do these statements mean for us, and what actions or engagements, beyond mere words, make sense for our parish? As Christians seeking to be "contemplatives in action," how can a process of acknowledging the land lead us to a "right relationship" with our Creator, ourselves, our neighbors, and the earth? We will explore these questions in three Sundays - one in each month beginning October 15. The three sessions will expand our conversation outwards, beginning with our immediate space in Wethersfield, building outward to the greater Hartford area, and then the diocese and the US.

We have no set agendas, but simply engage in a wide-ranging spiritual discussion built on our readings of the daily meditations from Rohr's Center for Action and Contemplation. It is free to sign up for the CAC Daily Meditations. Although Rohr is a Franciscan priest, the meditations often come from other theologians, and even from Episcopalians on occasion! For a link to our Saturday zoom gathering, please email Garth Myers at garth.myers@trincoll.edu or garthandrewmyers@gmail.com. We are a small group in number, but mighty in spirit and welcoming love.
