Practices for Spiritual Growth
To live is a question! We are always discerning.
Christian Meditation invites our questions to rest in our Spiritual Heart with God. In the silence we find that the guidance we need is not the right answer, rather our seated, still, open, hopeful stance toward God. In silent trust we find our way to a confidence shared in being with God with others.

Christian meditation is a short time of restful silence that reunites us to God’s love. We easily lose connection with our true selves in the fog of busy lives, stress and routine. In group contemplative prayer we practice simple quiet presence that guides us toward a sense of connection with God. Rev Lisa uses scripture, nature, prayer and poetry to guide the group toward open presence for God. Every meditation time is for beginners and those who have been practicing for a long time. Our prayer only requires our willingness for God, the rest comes through the power of the Spirit.

An evening to nurture your spiritual heart around the light of Christ. Bring your favorite chili, bread or salad to share. During the dinner, there will be a program on grief and the holidays, followed by a candlelit service of prayer and song in the sanctuary. The evening is meant to speak a word of authentic hope that pierces the darkness of sorrow and grief. Bring a neighbor or a friend.
