NMIPL Annual Gathering: Our Response During 'theTwilight'

"Twilight: A time of pause when nature changes her guard...." -Howard Thurman
New Mexico Interfaith Power and Light invites the public to its Annual Fall Gathering

Twilight: A Time to Pause, Community Reflections in a Time of Climate Change

Thursday, November 15, 6:30 pm
Albuquerque Mennonite Church,
1300 Girard NE, Albuquerque (map)

Join participants in reflecting upon the "twilight" time we find ourselves in. What sustains us? What wisdom can we share? How shall we proceed knowing so much and yet sometimes feeling so small as we face an enormous reality? What inspires us? What new directions call to us?

The event will feature an interfaith prayer, including music by Eileen and the In-Betweens
and a celebration of SEED and SPROUT Awardees

Additionally, a panel will discuss environmental issues and how we respond to these concerns.
