The Work of 1,000

This is the third of five parts of our Green Faith Series on Environmental Stewardship at Grace Church (160 High St).  A community dinner is served at 6pm.  All are welcome!

Check out http://gracemedford.org/greenfaith for a complete listing of the events and further details.

Here is some more information about the movie and Marion:

Marion Stoddart, a young mother of three, lived next to one of the nation's most polluted rivers. At a low point in her own life, she took on its clean-up as a personal cause-for herself, for the community, and for future generations. She had no special skills or training, but what she did have was a vision for what was possible. And, an unwavering resolve to save the dying river. Marion's historic success in cleaning up the Nashua River-recognized by the United Nations, National Geographic, and chronicled in books and now a movie-is an inspirational lesson about the impact one person can have in the world.

The screening is free, though we will be taking a free will offering to help defray the costs.

Come watch a 30-minute film about her, and meet Marion Stoddart as we discover together how we might turn our vision of change into a reality.

All are welcome!
