Last Sunday, some of our musicians shared different arrangements of “As the Deer”. As we continue the conversation this week, we encourage you to listen to the stanzas of the song. You may choose to use the music, and lyrics, as a prayer guide, or as an entry into prayer.
Continuing the Conversation
This week, our communal theme is “contemplation”. As we continue the conversation, we invite you to learn more about various tools that help us listen to God.
A labyrinth is a meandering path, often unicursal, with a singular path leading to a center. Labyrinths are an ancient archetype dating back 4,000 years or more, used symbolically, as a walking meditation, choreographed dance, or site of rituals and ceremony, among other things. Labyrinths are tools for personal, psychological and spiritual transformation, also thought to enhance right-brain activity. Labyrinths evoke metaphor, sacred geometry, spiritual pilgrimage, religious practice, mindfulness, environmental art, and community building.
Please take a moment to visit this website, spend some time in prayer as you move through a labyrinth.

Tabernacle Stories: Mary Jo Dailey (04/05/17)
“We need to tell stories as a testimony to what God has done and is doing. If we do not share the stories, their power and truth are diluted, and their impact forgotten” (Wright/Davis).
On April 5, 2017, we invited Mary Jo Dailey to share her call story. We are grateful for her bravery and vulnerability. Mary Jo’s testimony to God’s presence in her life is inspiring.
