Celebrate St. Patrick's Day with Green Work

March 17, 2012
Retreat House at Rolling Ridge Study Retreat

Calling all Members, Partner Groups and Friends!

St. Patrick loved to wield a rake, saw or garden hoe and we do too!  Join us on Saturday, March 17, 2012, for a joyful day of working together on the land.  We plan wood cutting, gardening and trail work.

Coffee and muffins at 9:30; work begins at 10. Lunch and supper provided. After supper join us for a campfire, Irish folk tales and more, music and games.

The Retreat House is open and available for overnight stays (no charge) on both Friday and Saturday.  Bring your own food for meals other than Saturday lunch and supper. Hours worked count toward membership and partner group volunteer commitments.

This event is FREE, but you must register to attend. Please register by March 9 so we know how much food to prepare. To register, email Lindsay@rollingridge.net or call 304-724-1069.

Quote of the Day

Lead me from death to Life, from falsehood to Truth.
Lead me from despair to Hope, from fear to Trust.
Lead me from hate to Love, from war to Peace ...
Let Peace fill our heart, our world, our universe ...
