Sunday's Talk —
“Lessons From Trees”
With Rev. Angelica Taggart
Rev. Angelica's message comes from the Jewish holiday of Tu Bishvat ... a celebration of trees. This holiday evokes themes of restoring cosmic blessings by strengthening and repairing the Tree of Life, generally using the physical metaphor of a tree, that is, roots, trunk, branches and leaves.
"May all the sparks scattered by our hands, or by the hands of our ancestors, be returned and included in the majestic might of the Tree of Life."
Music: Alan Peterson
Presiding: Norm Hogeland, RScP

9:15 am - Meditation

Dance Alchemy
Dance Alchemy is a dance company on a mission to bring dance to every spiritual community and celebration. Using dance as spiritual expression, we draw world rhythms from Latin America, Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. We learn to dance with affirmation, changing words into movement until words are no longer needed and the movement becomes our personal prayer.
Dancers of all different styles, abilities, levels, body types, and ages are welcome.
Rehearsals will begin Friday, February 3rd from 6:30 to 8:00 PM at 1801 Falls Rd, Suite 2E, Baltimore, MD 21201. Contact Candice Tritch -- candice.tritch@gmail.com or 443-904-6893
