DOES THE EARTH HAVE A PRAYER? 

The NRPE invites the environmental community and its friends to a 
discussion on religion and the enviromnment:  " Does the earth have a 
prayer?"  This program is designed to build bridges of communication and 
understanding between communities of faith and environmentalists who 
share a concern for the natural world.  We will discuss our specific 
constituencies and why we care about environmental issues, and 
explore ways in which we can work together and inspire one another. 

Speakers include: 

Paul Gorman, Director and Daniel Schwartz, Associate Director National 
Religious Partnership for the Environment 

Michal Smart, Co-Director, Coalition on the Environment and Jewish Life 

Drew Christiansen, Director, Office of International Justice and Peace,

Paz Artaza-Regan, United Methodist Church, National Council of 
Churches for Christ. 

Dr. Ron Sider, President, Evangelicals for Social Action.
