January Talk: What is Ecotheology?: Religion, Spiritualism, and Nature
2021 ended with a much needed thunderstorm on the peninsula, and hopefully the rain will change the dry desert scenery in the coming weeks. It will be interesting to document this change.
Unfortunately, because of the rising concerns over a new wave of COVID and the recent strain of new restrictions, we have to put our rambles on hold until further notice, but we invite you to enjoy responsibly some family outings. Please, don’t hesitate to share your discoveries.
To start 2022, we’re very grateful to have our members Alan Weber and Diana Woodcock as speakers on a deep and meaningful topic.
All the best,
Date & Time: Wednesday, January 12th, video Conferencing Starting at 7 pm.
