SAINT MICHAEL AND ALL ANGELS EPISCOPAL CHURCH
Rev. Brian D. McLaren
Saint Michael and All Angels Episcopal Church will host the Rev. Brian D. McLaren for a program, “Leading Sanibel Forward & Caring for Creation,” on Feb. 16 at 10 a.m. on Sanibel.
Hosted as part of the Interfaith Shared Scholar Program, attendees will take part in a thoughtful conversation about caring for creation and responding to climate concerns both locally and globally.
It will also address the reality of eco-anxiety and will consider what island congregations and individuals can do to love and sustain their islands in a time of climate crisis.
“St. Michael’s is honored to host this important conversation,” organizers said. “It is our hope that this critical dialogue will lead to meaningful and hopeful action.”
