Held in January in a remote Lutheran retreat center in the Glacier Peak Wilderness of Washington, this course studies how daily prayer and the liturgical year relate to the ecological cycles of the earth. Drawing on the fields of liturgical studies, ecotheology, and education; practicing a cycle of daily prayer; and spending considerable time outdoors, course members develop skills for interpreting liturgy in an ecological and missional era.
