Rachmaninoff – Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, Op. 43
The recital itself is free, but parking is only free at the music department lot after 4:00 pm so parking a few minutes before would be perfect. Street parking is also available on Dole Street.
It is politely requested that masks still be worn at the music department since some attendees may be immunocompromised.
Vaccination cards and proof of negative COVID test are NOT required.
How will you celebrate Earth Day this year? As a community of faith, we took steps to live more lightly on the land when we installed photovoltaic panels to lighten our carbon footprint. What is the next step for Holy Nativity? If you feel called to answer that question, consider being a part of Holy Nativity's Green Team.
Contact Rev. Jenn for more details.
revjenn.hnc@gmail.com
To start, in celebration of Earth Day, Rev. Jenn will lead a prayer hike/walk at Koko Crater Botanical Garden. We will give thanks for the beautiful blessings of Godʻs gift of the `āina and engage with it through prayer, scripture, and experience. The hike/walk around the garden is about two miles and you are invited to go at your own pace.
For those looking for a little less vigorous way to engage in this time, you are invited to bring a chair, walk just a little way, and sit in the quiet and peace of the garden.
All are welcome; please, bring a friend if you wish. Donʻt forget sturdy shoes, sunscreen, and some water!
