Sunday: Serve God, Save the Planet

Here's a heads up on an event coming up in Ballston on Sunday:
Serve God, Save the Planet
On March 9 – Learn how each of us can make a difference to God’s creation.

Hear Matthew Sleeth, author of “Serve God, Save the Planet,” preach at Mt. Olivet United Methodist Church in Arlington (his book has a 4.5-star rating on Amazon!). Mt.Olivet is the first church in Arlington to be certified as a "Green Church" in the Arlington district of the Virginia United Methodist Conference.

Dr. J. Matthew Sleeth and his family lived in a big house, had two luxury cars, loads of money, and lots of stuff. As chief of the medical staff at a large hospital, Sleeth was living the “American Dream” – until he realized something was terribly wrong. Learn more about his personal and spiritual journey to environmental stewardship.

When: March 9, 2008, 11a.m. & 4:30 p.m. services

Where: 1500 N. Glebe Rd., Mt. Olivet United Methodist Church

Getting There: Church is located on the corner of 16th St. and N. Glebe Rd. Served by bus from Ballston Metro (even on Sundays). Also an easy walk from the Ballston Metro. Parking lot also available; enter from Glebe Road.
