Leslie Bryant, Michael Tyo, Sara Hartman, and Gail Hardenbergh will present the Allegiance to Gratitude, also known as the Thanksgiving Address, as written in Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer. As Kimmerer describes, it is “… a river of words as old as the people themselves, known more accurately in the Onondaga language as the Words That Come Before All Else.”
The service will include music by Jim Gish and the BaCH trio (Ben and Colin Warwick and Helen Kim).
This service will be held in-person and online.
