Solar Eclipse Viewing

  • First Presbyterian Church 701 Beach Drive NE St Petersburg United States (map)

Did you know there will be a partial solar eclipse during the middle of the day on Saturday, October 14?

Gather your family and friends, pack a picnic, and bring a blanket or lawn chairs to the front lawn at church for an Eclipse Viewing Picnic from noon to 3 pm! Eclipse viewing glasses will be provided in both kid and adult sizes. Kyle Brinkman and other members of the St. Petersburg Astronomy Club are bringing some big telescopes for our eclipse viewing pleasure and will be on hand to enlighten us about eclipses, astronomy, and maybe even answer other questions about other mysteries of the universe! A live feed from one of the telescopes will be streamed onto a screen in the Chapel for any who need the comfort of air conditioning. Come see how “the heavens are telling the glory of God!”
