Contemplative Prayer
Autumn Prayer Morning
Saturday, October 26
The events of the world and in our local community can make It difficult to be a person who dwells in the peace and love of God. This is why we need one another as an intentional community seeking this love of God in our innermost hearts.
Holy Communion Church is hosting a special Autumn Morning of Prayer on Saturday, October 26th from 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
There will be two silent prayer periods and an opportunity to explore our indoor Labyrinth guided by Rev. Julie Graham. Optional gentle yoga is included, and a light breakfast & lunch will be served.
No experience necessary & all are welcome!
