If you Breathe in my quiet,
Interbreathe with all Life
Still small Voice of us all —
You will feel the Connections;
You will make the connections
And the rain will fall rightly
The grains will grow rightly
And the rivers will run
So you and all creatures
Will eat well in harmony,
Earthlings / good Earth.
— Rabbi Arthur Waskow;
Excerpt from v’haya im shemo’ad: a Prayer in a Time of Planetary Danger.
See prayer in full, and in Hebrew
Fall is finally upon us! Leaves crunch underfoot. Mornings are crisp. Apples and pumpkins abound. At many of the Global Climate Strikes in Pennsylvania on those last Fridays of September, it didn’t yet feel like fall. But that visible and hopeful upwelling heard around the world was beautiful, new, and challenging—as it was meant to be. We’ve gathered photos, videos and words you have shared with us in this blog post. We’d love to add your pieces, particularly those rooted in faith, or connected to the youth leadership of many gatherings across Pennsylvania. Thank you for being part of the clarion call!
