Vigil ‘connects the dots’ on climate change

The vigil will be held in the church’s sanctuary, with children walking in with pieces of Earth, such as rocks, fire and water, Lisa Hixon, of Edwards Congregational, said.

Six people will read reflections on what climate change is doing to Midwestern towns with floods and tornadoes, and what it is doing to global neighbors around the world, to future generations, and our blessed planet, Hixon said.

Participants will rededicate themselves to being healers of Earth and doing what they can to speak out against the use of fossil fuel, which is increasing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, she said.

Participants will sit in a circle around a round table with lighted candles spelling out the word “Hope.”

In February, alarmists got hysterical over $200,000 which they thought the Koch Brothers had given to Heartland.  Apparently skeptics are getting 0.0002% of the climate money, which Hansen says gives us a big advantage.
