The Center for Deep Green Faith is resuming its monthly webinar series on Thursday, August 18th at 7:30 p.m. Eastern Time. The August webinar will be, Deeper Green Faith: Including Creation in Word and Deed with the Rev. Dr. Jerry Cappel. 

During this webinar, Rev. Cappel will lead a conversation on how we often exclude and minimize the place of non-human creation in our faith and practice.  This marginalization of Creation is commonly manifested in the words we use and our habits of hospitality. The areas of deeper inclusion to be explored will be:

• The Word of Proclamation (proclaiming a greener gospel)
• The Dance of Liturgy (celebrating in greener worship)
• Attunement in Prayer (practicing a greener spirituality)
• The Life of Community (living a greener kinship)
• The Call for Justice (advocating a greener righteousness)

The Rev. Jerry Cappel is an ordained Episcopal priest currently serving at St. James Episcopal Church in Shelbyville, Kentucky. He also serves as the Environmental Network Coordinator for Province IV of The Episcopal Church, on the board for the Center for Deep Green Faith, and as a fellow with GreenFaith.  

Rev. Cappel has a Ph.D. in religious education and has worked as an author and editor of youth and adult education materials for Smyth & Helwys Publishing in Macon, GA and Church Publishing in New York.
