Choosing Mother Earth

Living in climate changing times is difficult....but we are people of hope and action. We need to share to address grief and beauty to move strongly together into the future.

Choosing Mother Earth is an initiative of Interfaith Power and Light New Mexico and El Paso region planned in an intergenerational manner. A deeper explanation is on our website homepage (scroll down to Choosing Mother Earth) to see an intro video with wonderful young adult insights and a link to a toolkit.

You can engage in any of 3 ways:

*On-line sharing around the book Choosing Earth that incorporates ritual, creative activities and ways to engage in deeper sharing. Four sessions: October 5, 19. November 2, 16 from 6-7:30.  Sign up with carlos@nm-ipl.org.

*Use our toolkit on the homepage to create your own group or use the kit for a congregational class or study group. Let us know if you have questions. 

*Intergenerational pair sharing. This is an exciting option suggested by our young adult planners as a way to have broader and deeper sharing and support. The pairs will connect periodically and may have a retreat together in early January. The toolkit can be used for this process. Intergenerational means 13-35 year-olds and older.  So you can do this with a son or daugther, grandchild, those in a faith community, etc.  Please contact joan@nm-ipl.org so we can have a list of all participating in this manner.  

*Future events and tools will be offered for Spring!!!

The book Choosing Earth can be read on-line for free at Choosing Earth website or can be purchased.  

Please let us know if you plan for one of these options and if you have questions.
