A colleague of mine is doing IVF treatment today - please pray for this to be successful and that soon they will be able to announce a new baby is on the way!

During this Christmas and New Year season, we invite you to explore a fantastic spiritual practice resource that many in our community have been finding a game-changer in their own spiritual lives.

Click Here to watch a 1-min video describing Lectio365 – a (free!) Daily Devotional and Guided Prayer App.


Each morning:

Engage in a creative 8-10 minute guided practice of scripture contemplation, personal reflection, and prayer.


Each evening:

Engage in another guided practice in the Prayer of Examen, contemplation, and preparation for rest.


We highly encourage you to give it a try for these two weeks, and just see what it does for your heart, mind, body, and spirit!

Weeks of December 26, 2022 -January 7, 2023

Ready for what's next?

Contemplations
Children of God

Remind yourself that you are God’s cherished kid, and that nothing in this world can separate you from that fierce parental love. 

Activities
Gratitude #2

Today we want to engage in the practice of Gratitude. And to do this, you’ll need a physical piece of paper – and something to write with. In our day-to-day lives, it can be easy to focus on whatever feels like it isn’t going the way we want, and slip often into grumbling and complaining. And that behavior can have a very negative impact on our emotional and even physical well-being. 

Contemplations
Imaginative Prayer | Wounded Healer

I want to invite you to close your eyes and picture your hurt – the ways you’ve experienced pain and hurt in the church, maybe generally or maybe very specifically or even recently – picture it as an actual wound on your body.
