Contemplative Scripture Study

Meet in the Chapel. Upcoming dates TBD.

All are welcome to join us for a contemplative study of the lectionary (scripture readings for the week) and community prayer.

Create community through collective reading and inquiry of lectionary passages followed by periods of silence to explore the personal significance of the passage. We have the opportunity to share with our small group the way we are called to bring this message into our life. After this we pray for each other.

This is a deeply meaningful way to bring scripture into our lives and make deep connections with each other.

Contact Valeria Stutz or Jennifer Blakeney with any questions.

Bibles and Bagels

Wednesday mornings, 7:30am. Meet virtually most weeks, in person in the Jin Room one week per month.

Participants meet for coffee and bagels and a lively discussion of the upcoming lectionary passage. There’s nothing to read ahead of time. Drop-ins welcome!
