The experiences were different, ranging from people on a bridge braving a minus-twenty-degree wind chill to a large circle of people gathered on autumn leaves with robust drumming, but the sentiments are remarkably similar. KAIROS local groups convened during COP27 to pray, sing, share reflections, and listen to the KAIROS and For the Love of Creation delegates. “During the vigil, I felt a sense of praying with the Earth, not only for the Earth,” said Wendy Janzen from Waterloo, Ontario. “I felt connected to other groups also praying or taking action this weekend, and to the delegations in Egypt. And I felt moved and inspired by the participants, the words, and the singing.” |
