Worship in the Wild

Gain a richer appreciation of the great mystery of God’s creation in this guided walk in Hermann Park, using the park’s beautiful natural setting to prayerfully ponder this mystery and praise our Creator for the marvels of Creation. The Via Creationis (the way of creation) commemorates the mystery of Creation by reading side by side the two sacred books that God wrote: the Book of Scripture and the Book of the Cosmos, as theologians have taught throughout history. At each stop along the walk, we will focus on one aspect of creation, with an accompanying verse from Genesis, a related science highlight, responsive readings, and time for reflection and prayer. Deepen your Christian spiritual practice by walking the way of creation in the park! All attendees will receive materials on the Via Creationis to take home and use again in future. This event is for a small group and advance registration is required. Specific meeting location in the park will be sent to all registrants several days prior to the event.
