Wild Journey
May 5 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Join us in returning to nature as spiritual practice! We will meet at Pepperwood Preserve on May 5th. Please bring a chair or blanket to sit on. We will meet under some oaks in the outdoor classroom, but please bring water and sun protection. Children are welcome to participate as much or as little as they like. Please email [email protected] to receive a digital waiver form that Pepperwood requires.
Wild Journey is an emerging community of those who are returning to nature as spiritual practice and desire to include both the human and non-human world. Wild Journey is Christ-centered AND welcoming to all spiritual paths. We meet in various locations within the Laguna de Santa Rosa watershed rain or shine.
“I longed for church to be a place where Mystery is experienced not explained.” – Victoria Loorz, Church of the Wild
