Why get ashes on your forehead on Shrove Tuesday or Ash Wednesday? It is a wonderful reminder that you are beautifully human, life is finite and it is time for you to seek abundance in your life by welcoming the Divine, who tells you to love yourself, love others, and love God. Plus, you can guess how long it will be before you mistakenly smear the cross of ashes on your forehead with your hand! We will offer eucharist at 12 PM and 7 PM Services. At the 7 PM Service, the choir will lead the service to begin the season of Lent, featuring the famous Miserere by Gregorio Allegri.

Christian contemplative practices invite us to cultivate a spaciousness within our souls that awakens us to the presence and love of God in all of life. If you’re interested in deepening your prayer practice in a way that invites greater peace and presence in your life, come along on Tuesday evenings at 7pm in the Library, where we’ll explore and practice this way of seeing and being together.

5/13 – A Moment of Awe
5/20 – Growing Up and Waking Up
5/27 – Suffering and Surrender
6/3 – Practices and Prompts

We will begin each night with a short, contemplative prayer and then offer some teaching and conversation using the book Just This by Richard Rohr. Just This is a collection of brief and evocative meditations and practices that invites us to cultivate the gift of waking up to the beauty of reality in all its glorious ordinariness. While not required, if you’d like to order a copy to read along, you can purchase here: www.ccc-info.org/justthis
The series will be led by The Rev. Marjorie Wilhelmi, who is certified by the Shalem Institute in Contemplative Leadership and a recent graduate of Living School for Action and Contemplation. Marjorie is drawn into contemplative practices as they help us live more fully into our Christian faith and is passionate about inviting others to join in that adventure.
This series is open to all, and so if you have a friend or family member who might appreciate the opportunity to explore soulful, contemplative practice, please bring them along!
