September 24, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Rev. Victoria Ingram
I live “rurally-adjacent”. In my neighbourhood, there are fields of definite
purpose, crops and orchards and grazing. But there are also expanses of land
that hold only wild flowers, grasses, thistles, and shrubs – in other words,
weeds. With no human stewardship, they grow, bloom, fruit, and seed,
coming back year after year. You can learn a lot from weeds – I have.

This Sunday, I’ll share my insights.
(We are especially delighted to have Rev. Ingram join us this Sunday for the first of a series of talks by her this year at UCG)
