Be still and know that I am God (Ps 46:10), Dec.5 at 9 am in the Guild room


Be still and know that I am God (Ps 46:10)
Come and experience the “Peace that passes all understanding” this Advent season. Start your week by calming body, mind and soul with ancient prayers and meditations. Learn about these prayers/meditations, practice them and integrate them into your daily life without adding another time commitment to your day. This Sunday we will explore and practice the ancient prayer of Lectio Divina.
Lectio Divina is Latin for divine reading, spiritual reading, or "holy reading," and represents a traditional Christian practice of prayer and scriptural reading intended to promote communion with God and to increase the knowledge of God's Word. It is a way of praying with Scripture that calls one to read, meditate, pray and listen in silence to a particular passage of the bible. It's a way to let the Word of God live in our hearts and not just in our heads.
