GreenFaith: Walk Across the Mahicantuck (Hudson River) for Climate

On Sunday, 17 October 2021 from 3:30 PM to 5:00 PM, faith and environmental communities join forces in a walk across the Rip Van Winkle Bridge between Catskill and Hudson.

Rev. Beilke will be leading a delegation from FPC, but please RSVP individually so that GreenFaith can estimate the size of the gathering. Please also bring a small drum or a tambourine, bell, signs or banners to enrich our witness!

Assemble at 3:30: two groups will assemble - one on each end of the bridge - for a brief statement of purpose (we will gather on the Hudson side)
Walk at 3:50: both groups will begin walking toward the center of the Rip Van Winkle Bridge.
Reflection at 4:15: when both groups connect at the middle, we will stop for a moment of silence followed with the sound of drums, tambourines, and bells.
Walk at 4:25: both groups will return to their beginning points.
Assemble 4:50: both groups will assemble - one on each end of the bridge - for a brief benediction.
