In 2025, Wesselman Woods is partnering with Tri-State Creation Care to focus on a new overarching theme.
Throughout 2024, the Night Owls Series will present a diverse lineup of speakers, each representing a different religious or spiritual pathway. Our aim is to foster a deeper understanding of the various beliefs and practices that shape our community and their relationship with the natural world. By engaging with new perspectives, we hope to bridge divides and cultivate a sense of unity in our shared commitment to environmental stewardship, advocacy, and justice.
In collaboration with Tri-State Creation Care, we have forged a meaningful partnership to ensure the success of this series. Together, we seek to create a space where individuals from all walks of life can come together to explore the interplay between faith, ecological awareness, and sustainable living.
As part of this unique lecture series, we are excited to announce a reciprocal event at each participating religious institution where the team at Wesselman Woods will showcase our efforts to preserve and protect the environment. This reciprocal exchange allows us to share knowledge, build relationships, and strengthen the bond between people, nature, and spirituality.
