Saint Patrick's Weekly Reminders
April 23, 2015
|
Please join us for worship this Sunday at 8:30 or 10:30 a.m. Children's Chapel takes place during the first half of the 10:30 a.m. service. A Lectionary Bible study for adults is held at 9:30 a.m in the Youth Room.
You are invited to deepen your own experience of spiritual rest while our rector is on Sabbatical. The goal is to help re-pattern the rhythm of our lives from one of driven/escape to ministry/Sabbath. Choosing a Sabbath day and keeping it holy, set apart, allows us time to reconnect with God, ourselves, our loved ones, and creation. Each week we will publish an inspirational quote and spiritual practice for you to try. There will be an on-going link to a piece of meditation music from our Music Director. Also provided will be a reminder calendar to help guide your chosen Sabbath day. Additionally, if you sign up for spiritual guidance through email you will receive a special email address where you can ask questions of our associate rector and share stories of your weekly experience. You will also receive a once weekly email to provide spiritual guidance based on our community Sabbath keeping experience. You may sign up at any time during the 15 weeks by clicking here. Click here to access the Sabbath Prayer which can be used to begin your Sabbath time.
