Are you curious about how to express gratitude, generosity or what Sabbath can look like? 😉 Aurora Sarchet reflects on these ideas in her reflection on Planted and what it means for her life. Check it out at the link in our bio!⁠

I spy with my little eye......an intern! Internships with A Rocha are full of skill-building like species identification 🐦🦋🌳, but they are also full of FUN! We have openings at our Brooksdale Environmental Centre in every program area this summer and fall. If you have 3 months free and want to grow in practical creation care knowledge, check out our internship page on our website - link in our bio.⁠

🌲 Did you know forests cover 30.7% of the Earth’s surface? 🌳 What about that forests are home to more than 80% of all terrestrial species of animals, plants and insects? Today is the International Day of Forests and it is a good reminder to continue caring for creation. Even as we care for our communities by practicing social distancing, we can still go for a contemplative walk in nature or join together in prayer.⁠ How else can you care for creation?⁠

What virus are you spreading?⁠
⁠
As the COVID-19 coronavirus makes its relentless way across the world, it is not the only thing that is going viral. Fear, panic-buying, stock-market slumps, and fake news stories are also infectiously spreading like viruses, making the situation so much worse. In this context, Dave Bookless asks two key questions in this latest article on the A Rocha blog:⁠
⁠
1. What can we learn about ourselves, our societies, and our planet from this crisis?⁠
2. Are there positives that we can aim to spread virally, overcoming the harmful infections?⁠

Learning to give back is a key part of our education sessions, and we believe the more you know about something the more able you are to care for it well. We seek to give back, even in small ways, to the natural world around us that gives us so much. @camelotcentre joined us to learn about maple trees, taste sap and syrup, and give back by planting maple seeds. #environmentaleducation #operationwild #accessibleeducation

Maria Clara came to A Rocha Brooksdale all the way from Brazil for an environmental education internship. She loved her first internship so much she decided to stay on for another three months! One of her favourite activities was introducing newcomers to Canada to the wonderful world of gardening and seasonal cooking. When reflecting on her experience, she had this to say: "I was humbled by how intentionally the community at A Rocha invests in us and seeks to get to know us, rather than treating us as "just another group of interns." I saw this when staff would take interns out for coffee, and through conversations around the table during community meals. I'm grateful for how the team built a safe learning environment for us to experiment which removed the fear of making mistakes. I'm very thankful."
