SUMMARY:Love the Mother: Mothers' Day Rally for Oak Flat
DESCRIPTION:Oak Flat (Chi’chil Biłdagoteel)\, a sacred site for the Apache people and other Indigenous nations\, is once again under urgent threat. The federal government has moved forward with steps that could allow the land to be transferred to a foreign mining company\, despite ongoing legal challenges. As Apache Stronghold seeks a court injunction to stop the transfer https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/local/arizona-environment/2025/05/05/federal-court-to-hear-plea-to-halt-a-land-swap-for-oak-flt-copper-mine/83371238007/ \, Apache Stronghold calls on faith communities to show up in prayer\, solidarity\, and action.  \nJoin Apache Stronghold this Mother’s Day to honor Mother Earth and all life-givers—and to stand for the protection of Oak Flat. This gathering will be a powerful space of remembrance\, resistance\, and renewal through prayer\, art\, and community.  \nVISIT SAVE OAK FLAT FACEBOOK PAGE FOR UPDATES https://www.facebook.com/SaveOakFlatArizona

The Court has not yet decided whether to hear the case.  \nOn April 24\, 2025\, Apache Stronghold requested that the district court in AZ grant “a narrow\, temporary injunction prohibiting Federal Defendants from transferring Oak Flat… during the pendency of Apache Stronghold’s Supreme Court appeal.” A hearing date for this request is set for May 7\, 2025 in Phoenix at 9:30AM. \nLeading up to the hearing\, Apache Stronghold is holding a Prayer Run & March from Sunday May 4 – Wed.

SUMMARY:THE CLIMATE OF THE FUTURE
DESCRIPTION:November 22\, 2021: THE CLIMATE OF THE FUTURE  – Kim Stanley Robinson\, Writer\, The Ministry for the Future (2020) \nKim Stanley Robinson has written a science fiction thriller on climate collapse in 2025 that reads as hard-edge journalism.  With short chapters written from the perspectives of a myriad of characters\, Robinson looks at climate change through lens of a kaleidoscope.  With each turn of his wrist\, we see another point view brought forward with imagination and a pragmatic visions on what must be done in order for us to survive.  Christian Holub writes “Robinson lays a blueprint for fighting climate change.” This may be one of the most important books published in the last two decades.  Bill McKibben said in his review of “The Ministry For The Future\,” in the New York Review of Books\, “This is not science fiction…..”  With questions ranging from what the end of capitalism might look like to surviving the end of the world\, Kim Stanley Robinson gives us a possible path to move forward with faith in what we can create together. \nRegister here: https://harvard.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Ki9SObPISlWvz9kaCDOTVA \n\nTerry Tempest Williams (author and Harvard Divinity School writer-in-residence)\, Charles M.

SUMMARY:THE CLIMATE OF GRIEF
DESCRIPTION:Poet Victoria Chang writes in her New York Times Notable Book of 2020\, OBIT “I always knew that grief was something I could smell. But I didn’t know that it’s not actually a noun but a verb. That it moves.” After the deaths of her parents\, she refused to write elegies\, instead she wrote poetic obituaries of the beautiful\, broken world that surrounded – Many see them as love letter. How does poetry illuminate this time of uncertainty. What we thought was a pause is now a place – grief is part of this place.  How do we embrace grief and not look away  from all that is breaking our hearts.  “Give sorrow words\,” Chang writes and she does. \nRegister here: https://harvard.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_BdGi-JXVSDe8RpzNonMLqQ \n\nTerry Tempest Williams (author and Harvard Divinity School writer-in-residence)\, Charles M.

SUMMARY:On Food and Faith: Ministry in the Time of Climate Change...
DESCRIPTION:Methodist Theological School in Ohio (MTSO) – Delaware\, OH \n“The soil is the great connector of lives\, the source and destination of all. It is the healer and restorer and resurrector\, by which disease passes into health\, age into youth\, death into life. Without proper care for it we can have no community\, because without proper care for it we can have no life.” \nWendell Berry\, The Unsettling of America: Culture and Agriculture \nTechnological advances in the 20th and the 21st century offer many American consumers easy access to cheap and abundant food\, much of which is traced to supply and labor chains around the world. The same advances have resulted in the depletion of soils\, the overuse of fertilizers\, herbicides\, and pesticides\, greenhouse gas pollution\, as well as increasing obesity and other food related health issues. And within this system\, millions in the U.S. and billions more across the globe go hungry each day. Food deserts persist across urban and rural America\, and upwards of 41 million Americans are food insecure\, 13 million of whom are children. This system keeps externalities hidden\, supply high\, and prices low affecting the long term health of soils\, water\, human beings and wildlife.\nThis year’s conference will teach faith leaders how our current food system is contributing to the climate crisis\, explore the impact climate change is having on farming and food security\, and help empower attendees to take action on these issues in a way that aligns with their deepest values. \nThe training is hosted by the Center for Earth Ethics\, Methodist Theological School in Ohio (MTSO)\, and The Climate Reality Project. It will take place at MTSO May 30th-June 1. \nApplications:\nApplications are open for the 2019 program. Application deadline is March 29\, 2019. Applicants will be notified of decisions by April 30\, 2019.
