Every Wednesday, 8:30 am: Lectio Divina
All are welcome to join us in the santctuary for the practice of Lectio Divina. Literally translated as "divine reading," participants of this ancient practice listen to Bible text with the "ear of the heart," while attempting to remain centered, and thereby better able to hear the "still small voice" of God. Lectio Divina includes moments of reading ("lectio " in Latin), reflecting on (meditatio), responding to (oratio), and resting in (contemplatio) the words of Scripture, with the aim of nourishing and deeping one's relationship with the Divine. Please join us.
