Contemplative Prayer

Contemplative Opportunities this Summer
Do you long to sit quietly in the presence of God? Would you like to join in silent prayer with others? Contemplative Prayer may be what you are seeking. There is no need to sign up, but please wear a mask and social distance when you arrive. This summer the Beloved Community is offering several opportunities for contemplative prayer—please consider joining us for one or all of them:

Sunday Contemplative Prayer Group
Sunday mornings (2nd and 4th Sundays) after 8:00 am service
This group is for adults who would like to experience praying quietly or silently with others. We will use a different prayer practice for each church season; these can include the Anglican rosary, Centering Prayer, and other approaches the group may want to try. A leader will be present to help introduce practices and guide the group. We will meet in the Prayer Room (next to the gym) for about 30 minutes.

Monday Contemplative Prayer Group
Once a month, every 3rd Monday (evening)
This group is for adults who would like to pray quietly with others in the presence of God, using whatever practice feels comfortable (Centering Prayer, the Jesus Prayer, etc.) If you are feeling this call, please consider joining us! A leader will be present to help guide the group. After introductions, we spend 20 minutes in silent prayer and then hear and discuss a short reading. We meet in the church sanctuary for about 30-40 minutes.

Labyrinth
Every 5th Sunday, 3:00-5:00; also possible “pop-up” dates
Come join us on a labyrinth walk. A labyrinth is a path, one in which you cannot lose your way. As you walk to the center, you release your burdens. Then you rest in the center. Once rested, you walk back out toward the world, receive the peace and strength needed. Our labyrinth  will be available to walk every 5th Sunday; we also hope to arrange more spur-of-moment “pop-up” dates. Stayed tuned for more information!

Mon., Aug. 16, 5:00 pm: Contemplative Prayer (sanctuary)
