Earth Day Gardening with MORSL
Celebrate Earth Day with us on April 22nd by getting your hands in the dirt with MORSL. We'll work on preparing our Interfaith Peace Garden (outside the entrance of 3610 McTavish) by doing some cleanup. Gloves and snacks are provided. If it rains, we will do rock painting and macramé inside. In MORSL's gardening group, we cultivate both plants and interesting, open, and supportive conversations about spirituality and life's questions while we work as a team.
Let's Talk About Mysticism: Labyrinths
Come connect/reconnect with fellow students as we reflect on this time of transition, of endings and beginnings. As part of this final session for this semester, we will look at labyrinths – these ancient mystical paths that have been walked for millennia – and you’ll get to try out a portable version you can “walk” with your fingers, finding your own personal meaning in the experience. As Simone Weil’s quote tells us, “The beauty of the world is the mouth of a labyrinth”.
