SUMMARY:From Ranching to Restoration
DESCRIPTION:From Ranching to Restoration: A Change of Heart for All Creation\nfeaturing Renee King-Sonnen\nSunday\, October 18\, 2026 | 10:30 AM – 3:30 PM\nFairlington Presbyterian Church | 3846 King Street\, Alexandria\, VA  22302\n \nPresented by the National Capital Presbytery Earth Care Network\, participating Presbyterian congregations\, Rowdy Girl Sanctuary\, and The Ark of Compassion. \nJoin us on Sunday\, October 18\, at Fairlington Presbyterian Church in Alexandria for a complimentary Compassionate Cookout and Community Potluck followed by a faith-centered conversation with Renee King-Sonnen–author\, public speaker\, documentary star\, and the founder of Rowdy Girl Sanctuary. \nFrom Ranching to Restoration \nRenee will share her remarkable journey from life on a Texas cattle ranch to transforming that ranch into a sanctuary for rescued farmed animals. Her story is one of courage\, compassion\, spiritual growth\, and the possibility of meaningful change\, even when change asks us to reexamine deeply rooted traditions. \nIn October\, many Christian communities honor St. Francis of Assisi and celebrate the Blessing of the Animals. In that spirit\, this gathering will explore how compassion for animals connects with faith\, care for creation\, concern for our neighbors\, and the everyday choices we make.
