2024/10/27 ● The Rev. Dena McPhetres ● A Clearing for the Soul

In her poem “The Clearing,” Martha Postlethwaite suggests that when you don’t know what to do, you should “create a clearing in the dense forest of your life and wait there, patiently.” Parker Palmer claims that the only way the soul can emerge is by creating a clearing for it through deep listening. How might we create a clearing for the soul and listen to what it needs in our dense lives, packed with joy and grief? Join us for this multi-generational service when we light candles to honor our dead.
