We’re having fun re-imagining a pattern of worship more in tune with the earth. We want to begin by marking the turning time of winter and the incarnation through soil and seed. Our first worship event will be a service shortly after New Year called, ‘The Seed That Fell Into The Earth’.

An EarthAbbey Mid-winter Celebration
All welcome. You are invited to join us at 3pm on Jan 3rd at
Faithspace, Stackpool Road, Southville Bristol BS3 1NW
Each person is invited to bring something living (remember that plants and even soil have life. Animals are welcome providing they will not be upset by being there.)
Listen a sower went out to sow.
And as he sowed, some seed fell among the path, and the birds came and devoured it.
Other seed fell on rocky ground, where it had not much soil
and immediately it sprang up since it had no depth of soil
and when the sun rose it was scorched and since it had no root it withered away.
Other seed fell among thorns and the thorns grew up and choked it and it yielded no grain.
And other seeds fell into good soil and brought forth grain,
growing up and increasing, and yielding thirty fold, and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.
Let the one who has ears to hear, hear.
Encouraging one another to journey towards a life more in tune with the earth.
