SUMMARY:Canceled: Lenten Book Study: White Awake
DESCRIPTION:  \nLent is a holy time for lament\, repentance\, and change. Many approach Lent with a commitment to “give up” a special treat\, behavior\, or habit. As part of our focus on Facing Systemic Racism\, the Mission Board encourages ELPC members and friends to embrace all aspects of Lent by engaging in an intentional read and weekly discussion of Daniel Hill’s book\, White Awake: An Honest Look at What It Means to be White. \nIn the book\, Pastor Hill reflects on a personal journey toward greater recognition of white privilege and white culture\, as well as how to effectively seek reconciliation among racial groups. This faith-based resource helps white people come to grips with the reality of privilege and institutional racism within ourselves\, our country\, and our churches. \nJoin us in the McKelvy Room. Copies of the book will be available for purchase and a light lunch will be served. Our discussion schedule is as follows: \n\nMarch 8 | Forward and Chapters 1–3 (45 pages)\nMarch 15 | Chapters 4–6 (53 pages)\nMarch 22 | Chapters 7–8 (44 pages)\nMarch 29 | Chapters 9–10 (44 pages)\n\nChildcare is available with reservation one week prior.

SUMMARY:Environmental Book Club: The Story of Stuff
DESCRIPTION:The Environmental Team of the Justice Committee invites you to read The Story of Stuff: How Our Obsession with Stuff is Trashing the Planet\, Our Communities\, and Our Health – and a Vision for Change\, by Annie Leonard (2010\, 352 pages). Available on Amazon \nWe have a problem with stuff. With just 5% of the world’s population\, we’re consuming 30% of the world’s resources and creating 30% of the world’s waste. If everyone consumed at U.S. rates\, we would need three to five planets! In her sweeping\, groundbreaking book\, Leonard tracks the life of the stuff we use every day—where our cotton t-shirts\, laptop computers\, and aluminum cans come from; how they are produced\, distributed\, and consumed; and where they go when we throw them out. Like Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring\, The Story of Stuff is a landmark book that will change the way people think—and the way they live. \nLeonard’s message is startlingly clear: we have too much stuff\, and too much of it is toxic. It is a system in crisis\, but Leonard shows us that this is not the way things have to be. It’s within our power to stop the environmental damage\, social injustice\, and health hazards caused by polluting production and excessive consumption\, and Leonard shows us how. Expansive\, galvanizing\, and sobering yet optimistic\, The Story of Stuff transforms how we think about our lives and our relationship to the planet. \nWe hope you’ll read the book and join us for discussion on Thursday\, March 12\, 7 pm\, in the Trustees Room. For more information or to tell us you are coming\, contact Nancy Heastings at n.heastings@comcast.net.

As part of our focus on Facing Systemic Racism\, the Mission Board encourages ELPC members and friends to embrace all aspects of Lent by engaging in an intentional read and weekly discussion of Daniel Hill’s book\, White Awake: An Honest Look at What It Means to be White. \nIn the book\, Pastor Hill reflects on a personal journey toward greater recognition of white privilege and white culture\, as well as how to effectively seek reconciliation among racial groups. This faith-based resource helps white people come to grips with the reality of privilege and institutional racism within ourselves\, our country\, and our churches. \nJoin us in the McKelvy Room. Copies of the book will be available for purchase and a light lunch will be served. Our discussion schedule is as follows: \n\nMarch 8 | Forward and Chapters 1–3 (45 pages)\nMarch 15 | Chapters 4–6 (53 pages)\nMarch 22 | Chapters 7–8 (44 pages)\nMarch 29 | Chapters 9–10 (44 pages)\n\nChildcare is available with reservation one week prior.

SUMMARY:2020 Summer Film Series | Taking Root
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to watch Taking Root: The Vision of Wangari Maathai\, and join us to discuss the film on Sunday\, July 26\, following Sanctuary worship. Click here to participate on Zoom or call 929.205.6099. Enter meeting ID# 819.8076.6834 when prompted. \nPlanting trees for fuel\, shade\, and food is not something that anyone would imagine as the first step toward winning the Nobel Peace Prize. Yet with that simple act\, Wangari Maathai\, a woman born in rural Kenya\, started down the path that reclaimed her country’s land from 100 years of deforestation\, provided new sources of food and income to rural communities\, gave previously impoverished and powerless women a vital political role\, and ultimately helped end Kenya’s 24-year dictatorship. \nPlease watch Taking Root prior to our discussion. The movie is available to watch for free at takingrootfilm.com/earth-day-2020. \n\nAbout ELPC’s 2020 Summer Film Series\nEach year\, the Mission Board and Mission Committees sponsor and host a summer film series. As we live into our designation as a PC(USA) Matthew 25 Congregation\, this year’s movies and documentaries will challenge us to continue our work as an anti-racist community and highlight the importance of environmentalism.

SUMMARY:2020 Summer Film Series | Just Mercy
