Gastrochurch with The Center

“The natural world is an incredible wonder that inspires us all. It underpins our economy, our society, indeed our very existence. Our forests, rivers, oceans and soils provide us with the food we eat, the air we breathe, the water we irrigate our crops with. We also rely on them for numerous other goods and services we depend on for our health, happiness and prosperity.”

There are many ways to celebrate Earth Day. Houston is full of festivals dedicated to honoring the achievements we’ve made in the environmental movement and opportunities to raise awareness for the need to protect the Earth’s natural resources. This Earth Day we wanted to highlight a group here in the community that embodies what it means to take care of the Earth every single day, not just once a year. This group and it’s members are warriors, teachers, healers and visionaries. 

Join us for our second of six gastrochurch experiences focused on social justice issues, in partnership with The Center for Christian Spirituality. 

This month we will gather at Central City Co-Op, Houston’s oldest, organic, sustainable food co-op, as we explore some of the most Earth friendly things you can do on a regular basis. We will enjoy a local and seasonal three course meal, discuss ways to minimize your carbon foot print, learn about regenerative practices and the importance of collaborating with our neighbors.
