CENTERING PRAYER
Thursdays from 10:30 TO 11:30 a.m., September 15 to October 20

Centering Prayer is a wordless prayer form where we learn to rest in a gentle, open attentiveness to the presence of God. By gently releasing thoughts that arise, we consent to the presence and action of God. You are invited, over the six weeks, to learn and practice this foundational contemplative discipline.To sign up: Contact Bev Selby at [email protected]

WOMEN’S SMALL GROUP
Wednesdays from 10:30 a.m. to 12 noon, starting October 5, Copeland House Fireplace RoomWe live in a breathless world. Everything around us seems to move at faster and faster speeds, summoning us to keep up. This rushed and frenzied existence is not sacred time. It is time governed by the rhythms of creation. Sacred time is time spent being present to the moments of eternity available to us whenever we choose to pause and breathe. Are you looking to be part of a small group of women who would like to slow down and find this sacred time as we fellowship, pray and worship together? I’m praying for you now. The group is limited to 15, in order to have time to share and grow in His love.To sign up: Contact Debi Moses at [email protected]
