Of all the practices we are exploring in this series, life practice is the one most completely integrated into the way we live our daily lives. It encompasses all our day-to-day decisions — how we prioritize our time and resources, the work and leisure activities we choose, and (in this week of Earth Day) the ways in which we are stewards of our planet.

Inspired by the words of Edward Everett Hale (often attributed to Helen Keller who did live them whether she originally said them or not), this morning’s service celebrates our pillar on peace, social justice and the interdependent web along with our sixth and seventh principles.
Our connection to each other and all life calls us to do what we can do for the good of all whatever that may be.

Our series continues with a session on soul practice.
Soul practices are all of the ways we express ourselves creatively.
Writing, drawing or painting, music and dance are just a few forms of creative practice, but people can also act creatively when they cook, garden, decorate a home, and do all sorts of other things.
Come and find ways in which you may already be living a creative life.
