Join us for a cosmic walking meditation recalling the scientific and spiritual aspects of our sacred origins. It is the unfolding story our universe, the story of terra firma beneath our feet, and the integration of our personal story as a human community. We will begin with the story of the universe, 13.7 million years ago, as we stroll on the land once traversed by the Dakota. We will ponder the mystery of creation, pausing at 25 posts along the way, to recall the sequence of creation. This new understanding of our universe and our natural world was developed in the 20th Century, through the work of physics, geology, astrology, archaeology, anthropology and history. As we walk, you will be awed by the ancient holy.

In the event of inclement weather, the session may be rescheduled. Please check for updates prior to the session.

Events taking place outdoors will be held in Assisi Heights Canticle Park & the surrounding grounds. Please park in the Canticle Park parking lot & join the group in the grassy area. We are open for limited sponsored events. Please refrain from attending if experiencing any symptoms of COVID-19 or other illness or have been exposed to any persons infected with COVID-19.
