Theological Plant Walk with Blane Finnie

This morning a small group gathered in the Quiet Garden at Kent Lodge. We were there to experience a Theological Tree Walk with Blane Finnie. Blane is a horticulturist who is presently discerning his calling to the priesthood at the Atlantic School of Theology.

Blane gave a brief talk about humankind’s gardening stewardship of the Earth. The lecture can be found as a video here.

We spent time looking at and identifying the many and varied trees within this beautiful place. Blane explained many interesting features and the reasons why certain specimens from as far away as Japan can survive in the Nova Scotia environment.

We are filled with awe at the wonders of God’s creation and our Christian responsibility to be good gardeners. ​
