In the altar alcove, David Best's Our Lady of the Harbor, is a memorial to a child who drowned in Papermill Creek and to all children whose lives have been cut short. A guiding light, the Virgin Mary statue stands tall as the Star of the Sea, guarding our planet waters from the plastic debris that imperils all.
Since 1999 Richard and Judith Lang have focused their attention on just 1000 yards of tide line where they have collected plastic washing ashore on Kehoe Beach in the Point Reyes National Seashore. Although the news about plastic pollution is dire, they bring the excitement of scouting for treasures and the pleasure of the creative life to an otherwise difficult topic.
