Earth-Water-Faith Festival

As we move into spring again, we remember that soon it will be Earth Day.  This celebration of the Earth and its resources will occur on Monday April 22-- just a few weeks away!!  Again, as in past years, the Chesapeake Interfaith Environmental Group is having an "Earth-Water-Faith" festival on Sunday April 28 at Annapolis Towne Center in Parole.  The festival will include entertainment, environmental education, and plenty of kids activities sponsored by the Chesapeake Bay Foundation.  You will also get a chance to see how various faith congregations are caring for the resources that God has provided through interactive activities and displays.

So, who is the Chesapeake Interfaith Environmental Group?  "The Chesapeake Interfaith Environmental Group (CIEG) is an assembly of faith institutions within the Annapolis/Chesapeake Region and The Chesapeake Bay Foundation, whose mission is to celebrate the gifts of God's creation through worship and putting our faith into action for the care of the earth."  The faith institutions include:

 Annapolis Friends Meeting

Congregation Kol Shalom

First Presbyterian Church of Annapolis

Greater Annapolis Interfaith Network

Islamic Society of Annapolis

Congregation Knesesth Isreal

St Anne's Episcopal Church

St Margaret's Episcopal Church

St Mary's Roman Catholic Church

Please plan on attending to show your support for the environment, see how others are implementing their faith, and hopefully learn something new.  We hope to see you there!!
