Chant Circle meets Sunday, July 26 in Caton Hall

If you would like a prayerful and fun experience of sacred dance, chant, and body prayer, join our circle.  We meet in UCCA's Caton Hall on the last Sunday of each month from 4:00-5:30 pm.

"The gift of body prayer for me is that we sit with each one long enough to enter into the Presence together. Calming ourselves is one of the goals so that we can experience that thin place of Divine-Me connection or, in less binary thought, I can become aware of the Divine Presence which flows from within me and encircles me."    
                                                                       - Rev. Dr. Wayne Schwandt                                                     

OPEN ARMS will recommence in September
. See you there!

From Erine 

Traveling to Cumberland was an adventure on my list but not for my reason why.  I went there for someone who needed my love and time.   It is a hard journey to love someone and be powerless to help them except in spirit.  This is the road yet to be taken.  As best I can I will take this road and hope to see what is beyond the trees!  Loving someone means that much!  


Vocation is the place where our 
deep gladness meets the world's deep need.
