From our meeting:


1. I am the earth

2. I say yes

I attach the story of impact below that I filled in on the form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSddfSrYR8OsjDAk8MtfYc3S7Twe1oiSQkrHTCthTt0oe6D5iQ/viewform that Christopher sent to us.


Your story can relate to any of the three focus group areas. It doesn't just have to relate to Care of the Earth.

You can send the link to all whom you think might have a story worth sharing and you can send my completed example also if this helps them to fill out the form.


Our next meeting is August 25th at 1:00pm Irish Time where Dorothy has agreed to provide us with a reflection but you are invited to the Prayer service on the 9th of August (Flyer attached - please share) I will ask IPA to share across their mailing list also.


For our own prayer service in Sept to celebrate the Season of Creation,


We will plan for no more than 30 minutes with the help of the Irish and English Sisters who are preparing a service anyway but using some of the resources that come from North and South India.
