This is a joint service for First Parish in Framingham, First Parish in Wayland and First Parish in Sudbury being hosted by First Parish in Wayland, 225 Boston Post Road, Wayland, MA 

Interspersing songs with his personal reflections on the season, Jim Scott celebrates a spiritual and ecological awareness so necessary now. The days are already getting longer; we’ll look back and look ahead to the rebirth of another spring.  Jim makes the case for our “spiritual response” as in the past year the crisis of the life spirit of our Earth has only grown greater. Resisting becoming “us and them,” our theology calls for teachers, diplomats, and healers in a momentous time to come. Jim’s songs and poetry reaffirm our place in the amazing, continuing web of life.
