SUMMARY:VS. GOLIATH - "Appalachia" Film Screening with Guest Speakers
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a live-only screening of VS. GOLIATH: APPALACHIA with speakers Crystal Cavalier-Keck and Jason Campos Crazy Bear Keck\, founders of 7 Directions of Service. Discussions to follow the showing of the film. Free and open to the public at Temple Emanuel Winston-Salem (201 Oakwood Dr). \n  \nAbout the film: Deep in the hollows of the Appalachian Mountains\, the construction of a fracked gas pipeline rips through mountaintops\, forests\, and streams\, bearing down on rural communities across Appalachia. Russell\, an Army veteran who once swore an oath to protect and serve his country\, now finds his home\, waters\, and forests under threat. He enlists in the battle to defend his community. Russell joins forces with people along the pipeline route\, including Georgia\, an apple farmer in Virginia; Maury\, a retired schoolteacher in West Virginia; and Crystal and Jason\, Indigenous community leaders in North Carolina. Together\, they form a movement that faces numerous setbacks as they take on the multibillion-dollar corporations behind the pipeline. When one of the nation’s most powerful politicians intervenes\, the stage is set for a high-stakes showdown. \n  \nParkway United Church of Christ\, Temple Emanuel Environmental Movement\, Green Street Methodist Church and Unitarian Universalist Fellowship are collaborating for the 2026 monthly environmental film/speaker series in the hosting of these films. Questions? Contact Gayle Goldsmith at (336) 407-2767 or gayle@ggtuchlaw.com \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Mindful Birding at Historic Bethabara Park
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a peaceful and reflective time at Historic Bethabara Park\, where we will blend birdwatching with mindfulness practices to deepen our connection to nature. Whether you’re an experienced birder or a curious beginner\, this event invites you to slow down\, tune in\, and engage fully with the natural world. \nMindfulness is a practice that involves paying attention to the present moment with compassion and nonjudgement\, and practicing mindfulness in nature is known to decrease stress and increase feelings of interconnection with others. Our theme on this outing will focus on grounding and presence\, so we will learn techniques to cultivate more awareness in the present moment\, such as mindful listening\, mindful walking\, and mindful breathing. While listing bird species is not our focus\, we will be observing them closely and learning about local species and ecology as an anchor to the present moment. \nAll ages and experience levels with birding and mindfulness are welcome\, and families are encouraged to join. You can expect an introduction on mindfulness\, a slow\, guided walk\, time for reflection in nature\, and space to share your experiences with others. \nThe outing is free\, but we do ask that you register to reserve your spot here: https://app.amilia.com/store/en/city-of-winston-salem/api/Activity/Detail?activityId=yege6gp
