Seven Generations
Class Leader: Kenneth Meador Email: Klm1232003@lcisp.com
Place: Youth Room - Christian Ed Wing
The polar ice cap and glaciers are melting faster than scientists anticipated, species are disappearing at astounding rates, and the rain forest is being cut and burned at a rate of more than 200,000 acres a day. Energy prices are sky rocketing and extreme weather is becoming a norm. Is there anything that can be done?
Using the guiding principle embodied in the Native American philosophy, "In every deliberation, we must consider the impact of our decisions on the next seven generations," from the Great Law of the Iroquois Confederacy, we kick off "Seven Generations" encompassing invigorating discussion and study materials.
Through study and discussion of books and film, Seven Generations will explore the interconnected issues of:
- Environment & ecology
- Social justice & human rights
- Community development & sustainable agriculture
- Personal & spiritual growth
We will meet during the adult Sunday School hour, 9:30 - 10:30 a.m., in the Youth Room. The class is open to adults of all walks and ages. Hope to see you there!!
