Celtic Creation Eucharist
The Celtic Eucharist season for 2008 will be shifting to Wednesday evenings at 7:00 p.m. beginning in September. Along with the day change, the services will also change slightly to explore other creation centered spiritualities besides the Celtic. The elements of the service will remain the same, and we will certainly observe the solstices, equinoxes and some Celtic themes, but we also look forward to exploring other theologians, mystics and sources. We invite you to attend the Celtic Creation Eucharist for the 2008-2009 series.

The purpose of the Celtic Creation Eucharist is to worship in an informal and communal setting by exploring the theologies and spiritualities of creation centered Christianity. We seek to address the hunger in some Christian circles for worship with a theology based on the goodness of creation and humanity.
It is not an attempt to mimic prayer and liturgies from other times and places, but to draw from the spirituality of ancient and indigenous cultures. The worship is also contemporary because much of its energy emerges out of the experience and creativity of other worshiping community’s practices today. The style of worship remains flexible and evolving as we draw freely from alternative Anglican and ecumenical sources. We believe that worship should engage all the senses including our bodies, and so movement is an element of the worship for those who choose to enter into that experience. We believe that God’s revelation is on-going and not confined to Holy Scripture and so other voices from the Christian tradition are heard with the proclamation of the Gospel. The breaking-open of the Word is a task we share with the preacher. The service is supported by other Episcopalians and seekers in search of a spiritual home.
