SUMMARY:Covenant Hike Group
DESCRIPTION:The Covenant Hike Group invites all who have a wonder of the natural world to share nature immersion with each other through 3 seasons while experiencing the presence of God. The format is simple. We begin with a brief reading (scripture or poem)\, hike along while sharing joys and concerns\, and appreciate 5 minutes of silence at mid-point. Each hike concludes with an optional\, brief time of sharing about our experiences on the hike\, closing prayer\, and a cool or hot drink. All ages are welcome.\n\nEach month we will meet at a designated location at 2 p.m.\, hiking various paths in our area for about an hour at a comfortable pace for everyone. The group will meet each first Sunday from October through May\, and participants may join in as schedules allow.\n\nFacilitator: Jim Johnson. Contact Jim at jjohnso@luc.edu with any questions and to be placed on the distribution list.

SUMMARY:Holy Hurt Book Group
DESCRIPTION:Holy Hurt – Healing from Religious Trauma \nWednesdays 7pm-8:30pm | Starting the week of Oct. 8th  through November 12th | Glenna Hall  \nLed by Rev. Britt Cox and shared weekly facilitation with group participants  \nMany of us carry invisible wounds from faith communities that once promised love\, belonging\, or truth—but instead delivered shame\, fear\, or harm. In Holy Hurt\, therapist and theologian Dr. Hillary McBride gently guides readers through the complex terrain of religious trauma with compassion\, insight\, and hope. \nThis class will be a space for honest reflection\, guided discussion\, and spiritual care as we explore themes like: \n\nNaming and understanding religious trauma\nReclaiming your body\, story\, and relationship with the Divine\nGrieving what was lost—and holding onto what still gives life\nFinding new ways of connecting with God\, others\, and yourself\n\nWhether you are deconstructing\, rebuilding\, or simply curious\, this class offers tools for healing\, language for your journey\, and community for the road. All are welcome\, especially those carrying questions or wounds from past faith experiences. \nClass will be capped at 15 people and we ask that folks register ahead of time here on realm. Purchase the book and read through chapter 1 prior to the first class.  \nRegister here at the Realm Registration Event.

SUMMARY:Styrofoam Collection
DESCRIPTION:The Earth Care Committee holds its monthly Styrofoam collection time at First UMC Evanston on the third Saturday of the month at the Church Street entrance between 10am and Noon. Material to be collected includes all clean No. 6 plastic foam. Acceptable items include disposable coffee cups; take out containers (such as clamshells); plastic plates\, bowls and cutlery; meat and poultry foam trays and packing foam. When recycled\, these items can be processed into a material used to make park benches\, picture frames\, and other items. Recycling these items helps keep this harmful plastic\, which cannot be processed locally\, out of the waste stream.
