Inspired by Lakota and Wiccan traditions, this service will honor Mother/Grandmother Earth through music, words, ritual, and shared practice. The first Mother's Day was dedicated to peace and nonviolence, and today's services will invite the embodiment of peace within and among us. Karen and Ronya are beloved writers and mental health practitioners who bring years of experience creating spaces of healing and beauty.
