Experience Awe

Experience Awe!

“…we will recover our sense of wonder and our sense of the sacred only if we appreciate the universe beyond ourselves” Thomas Berry.

Join the Sisters of Saint Joseph to view this once in a lifetime event and be reminded that “Everything is related, and we human beings are united as brothers and sisters on a wonderful pilgrimage, woven together by the love God has for each of his creatures and which also unites us in fond affection with brother sun, sister moon, brother river and mother earth.” Pope Francis

Activities will include blackout poetry, awe walks in our wildlife habitat, raffle, and the Mt, Hope World Singers. Please bring lawn chairs for seating. Parking will be limited. The Motherhouse is on the Auburn Trail for those who would like to walk or ride a bike.

Your safety is our top priority. Please review these important safety guidelines for viewing the eclipse: American Astronomical Society: How to view the eclipse safely
