In June 2017, thousands from across the country (and abroad) will gather for General Synod 2017 at the Baltimore Convention Center in Baltimore, Maryland. Together, we will discern resolutions of witness, church structure, and function. We will stand up for issues that demand a faithful witness. And we will join together in worship each day to lift up the Stillspeaking God.

Course offered at Noble Horizons:
You won’t save what you don’t love. Using this statement as our starting point, we will explore the best of nature writing--poetry, fiction, and essays--to create empathy and affection for the natural world. We will also explore concepts in environmental sustainability that pertain to our deep-seated human need for what the natural world provides for us, and reckon with our drive to master nature instead of living within it, as one species among many.
