sermon as part of hour service: The Nature We Call Home

Tandy Hills walk: 12:15 pm to 2 pm

Westside Unitarian Universalist Church, 901 Page Ave, Fort Worth, TX  76110

It’s Mother’s Day, so let’s celebrate Mother Earth! Possessing a deep attachment to the land that shines through Wild DFW, Amy will bring insight into how to appreciate and explore our North Texas nature. The talk pairs radiant photographs of the outdoors and poetic passages from the book with her own profound experiences, including how hiking trails helped her heal from a near-fatal spinal injury. Discover the passion of the prairie, nurturing bottomland forests, soaring escarpments, and cast-iron Eastern Cross Timbers, all bound up with our river, the elusive Trinity. Wild DFW’s for sale or signing after.
