Each month (usually the 4th Sundays), we intentionally set aside time to connect with God & one another through nature. We have explored trails, parks & beaches, hosted farm work days, and even kayaked together. Our June Church in the Wild will take place at Hanna Park (Pavilion 4) and will be facilitated by Elizabeth Filippelli, Conservation Director of Duval Audubon Society. She will lead us in a meditative walk, provide education about bird conservation, and lead us in a hands-on activity.

We will begin gathering at 10 a.m. and start our time together at 10:30 am. Feel free to bring beach gear and stick around afterward to enjoy the park!

**If this is your first CITW gathering, welcome! During most CITW gatherings, we begin with some kind of centering readings, then are sent into nature to listen. We bring back a "sermon from the wild" (what did we hear/see/notice? what was nature inviting us to know/be/do?) and return for a time of sharing. Here is a sample gathering guide.
