Looking Ahead to Fall Program: Finding God on the Altar of the World
Our 12-week Tuesday evening program this fall will grapple with the most persistent challenge in developing a living, breathing spiritual life: How do I encounter God in my daily life, and where is God in my real-life experience? Each week drawing on the wisdom in Barbara Brown Taylor's book, An Altar in the World, we will work in small groups to develop spiritual practices such as "Waking up to God," "Feeling Pain," "Living with Purpose," "Encountering Others," and "Pronouncing Blessings." The program begins Tuesday, September 22, 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM. Childcare will be provided with advance RSVP. Questions? Contact the Rev. Susan Richardson, and to register, contact Cecilia Wagner.
