Lenten Prayer Morning
Saturday, April 12, 2025
Lenten Prayer Morning, is a practice to engage the body and soul! Everyone is invited to gather on Saturday morning, April 12th, beginning at 8:30 a.m., to relax and prepare to hear God.
You may participate for the entire morning, and come/leave as you are able.
We will begin with a light breakfast of bagels, fruit, coffee and tea. Then we will ease into quiet with centering prayer and meditation.
Experience walking our indoor labyrinth. Practice listening for God's message. End with gentle yoga.
Take this opportunity to practice quieting our minds and relaxing our bodies, to hear the still, small voice within.
Please register (details below). We ask only for a voluntary donation to cover the cost of the food. Cash/check accepted at arrival, or pay online here https://pushpay.com/g/episcopalchurchholycommunion.
