Midday Prayer Midweek: A Still Point in a Turning World

One of the parts of life that I truly like about our Church is Midday prayer midweek--Wednesday--in the sanctuary. Using the Midday Prayer order in the Book of Common Worship, 6-10 of us gather for 20 minutes to pray, using the words of Scripture and usually a reading from a book by my friend Henri Nouwen as our guide. The meal afterward continues the sense of community that has begun to surround our gathering.

An invitation: if you are free on Wed. afternoon, please come to Midday prayer! Take 20 min. of your day and discover what Eliot called the "still point of our turning world."

Peace!

Pastor Brett
