50 Great Days to Green Up, Power Down and Shout Out: Mission 4/1 Earth

Pilgrim will celebrate Earth Day, this Sunday, April 28.    Bellissimo Handbell Choir and Sunday School youth are teaming up to present a Suite of Animals during the Time with Children.  Pilgrim Choir is singing John Rutter's composition, All Things Bright and Beautiful.  After the Coffee Hour, parents will gather to talk about Sunday school and children's programming at Pilgrim while children and youth are busy with some special Earth Day activities.

We're half way through the season of Easter and our Mission 4/1 Earth Initiative.  At the moment,  it's hard to see signs of Earth's Greening Up here in Duluth!  The snow is still deep in places and more is in the forecast!!!  But we're making ready--we've ordered bulbs and perennials and more than 250 to be planted when spring finally arrives.

Homeowners in our congregation are taking advantage of opportunities to decrease their energy use at home and this Sunday the Mission 4/1 Earth Table will feature water conservation at home.  Order low flow shower heads and faucet aerators at whole sale prices!

Carpool, bike or walk to Pilgrim this Sunday!  It just might be that the sun will shine.  The same weather forecasters predicting snow on Monday night say we will top 50 degrees come Sunday.  Ah Spring!  You will be so welcome!!!!
