DOWNLOAD EBOOKIntricate illustrations depict details of a modern quilt inspired by Sibylle von Olfers' classic storybook Mother Earth and Her Children This vibrant new translation, in turn inspired by the quilt, explores the changing of the seasons and delicately touches upon the circle of life. When Mother Earth calls her children to prepare for spring, the earthly children yawn and stretch before they busy themselves with beautification. They dust off the bumblebees, scrub the beetles, paint bright new coats on the ladybugs, and rouse the caterpillars from their cocoons. Bedecked with new blossoms, the children emerge from the earth and become spring flowers that frolic through the summer and autumn, until the leaves begin to fall and they return to Mother Earth, bringing the weary bugs and beetles back to their winter refuge.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKDeveloped out of a tremendous interest in "creative" worship, this compilation of worship services comes from a call to churches across Canada, Australia, and the USA to submit liturgies and orders of worship. A number of very special liturgies came from this call, including A Christian Ritual Affirming Pregnancy, An Earth Day Service, A Service of Reconciliation for Congregations in Conflict, and a Service of Naming and Thanksgiving. Also included are poems, readings, songs, and other ideas to build creative worship services for key Sundays of the Christian year. For each worship service there is a full liturgy. Includes a CD containing the text.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKYoung children usually think of their home as the structure in which they live. In Our Big Home, the author and illustrator present a much larger vision of home as the planet Earth. Linda Glaser's beautiful poem is a wonderful way to gently lead children toward the all-important understanding of caring for our environment. In her lyrical, child-oriented style, she presents the idea that our big home is shared not only with all people but with all plants and animals as well. She shows that we share the air, the water, the soil, and other elements that affect and sustain all of us who live on Earth. Elisa Kleven's vibrant art enhances the concept as she takes young readers to an African plain, a Caribbean island, a South American mountain, and around the world to see people and animals reveling in the beauty and abundance of our shared home.
