All About Parks: Caring for the Places We Share

With Maggie Stuckey-Ross, Director of Lincoln Parks and Recreation

Wednesday, November 11 | 12:00–1:00 PM
Eastridge Presbyterian Church | 1135 Eastridge Drive, Lincoln

Our parks, trails, recreation centers, and public spaces are more than places to play, exercise, or enjoy nature. They're places where community happens—and places we hold in common.

Join the Faith Coalition of Lancaster County as we welcome Maggie Stuckey-Ross, Director of Lincoln Parks and Recreation, for a conversation about the department's work, its vision for Lincoln's parks and public spaces, and the opportunities and challenges involved in caring for these shared community resources.

We'll also explore how residents and faith communities can take part in caring for the places that bring us together.

As part of this year's theme, What We Hold in Common, we invite you to consider how the spaces we share help shape the community we become.

People of all faiths are invited to gather for this annual community service of gratitude and thanksgiving. This year's featured speaker is Rev. Irene Prince, pastor of Quinn Chapel AME Church in Lincoln and Mount Olive AME Church in Emporia, Kansas.
Clergy from a variety of faith traditions will participate.

Everyone is welcome to sing! An interfaith choir will rehearse at 2:00 p.m., just before the service. No advance rehearsal is required. For more information, contact Brian Pfoltner at musicdir@fpclincoln.org or 402-477-6037.

A reception will follow the service, offering an opportunity to connect with neighbors across faith traditions. You're welcome to bring a dessert to share, as well as nonperishable food items for the Food Bank of Lincoln. Both are entirely optional.

All are welcome!
