What to bring?
Bring a chair, water; journal and snack if you'd like. Dress for the weather with good walking shoes. Bring a drum if you have one for a short time of drumming and chanting.
What about accessibility?
Our gathering places are outdoors and on natural terrain. If you have a specific accessibility concern, please contact me so I can support you. Activities will vary so those with limited mobility may participate.
Each and every attendee assumes responsibility for their own safety and wellbeing at Wild Church Denver events.
Are children welcome?
Yes! Our gatherings are informal and relaxed, and children are free to participate to the extent that they wish. Four-years-old and up seem to really engage, and all ages are welcome. Just being outdoors and playing can be part of worship. Caregivers are responsible for children and their safety during the gathering.
There is no charge for attending Wild Church Denver, AND, donations are welcome to cover cost of supplies and my time to prepare. A portion of all contributions will be shared with Earth Guardians.

Eco-spirituality invites us to remember that we are nature. We don't live on the land, we live with it. We can be in direct relationship with the elements and creatures with whom we share our homes - a relationship of love. Additionally, Spirit infuses and animates all of nature, so when we connect with nature, we connect with Spirit.
We defend what we love. So this kind of spirituality leads us to climate action that is committed, long-lasting and grounded in a loving relationship with the planet. Our ancestors knew this. Come deepen your indigenous way of knowing.
Wild Church Denver is part of the Wild Church Network. I will lead us using this general flow:
- Create a sacred circle together while we engage all our senses
- Honor your ancestors
- Tune into place - acknowledge creatures, directions, elements, and ancestors of the land
- Tune into time and season (see Wheel of the Year below)
- Reading, short teaching or guided meditation
- Contemplative activity - 30 minutes to connect with nature and Spirit
- Conversation - an invitation to share
- Closing ritual with shared gratitude and blessings
