Today’s scientists are revealing what people of faith have long known, that prayer and meditation are powerful tools to promote wellness, reduce anxiety, and foster healing.
Studies show that a regular practice of prayer or meditation, even 5 minutes a day, can rewire the brain and change the way we react and respond in the world, helping us to be less reactive, anxious, and ashamed, and more rooted in the generous love of God.
Many would like to nurture a practice like this in their lives but aren’t exactly sure where to start or how to integrate it into an already busy life. Using simple tools from historical Christian prayer practices, Ginny Fisher, Emily Clark, and Mike Boyers will provide some practical ways to help you kick start a consistent practice or deepen the practice you already have. The group will provide support and accountability as you build this into the rhythm of your life. Join us!
Meeting space: Sanctuary building, room 305. Park past the playground and use the Education Wing door; we’ll be upstairs, first room on the LEFT. You’re also invited to come early for Wednesday Community Supper in the social hall, serving a free hot meal 5:30-6:30pm! Use the building entrance under the giant portico. Then to get to class, walk all the way through the social hall, turn left at the wall (family restroom door) and go all the way down the hallway; take the stairs up to your left, and we’ll be the last room on the RIGHT.
Sign up or Show Up
You can sign up for class ahead of time or you can also just show up to class without registering!
Support our Teaching Ministry
We invite you to make a voluntary contribution to the church to support our teaching ministry. Any amount welcome! Use the Give Online button below, or drop your check/cash in the offering plate Sunday or bring to class, marked for Adult Discipleship. We never want the cost of a class or materials to prevent your participation, so if donating doesn’t fit your budget at this time, it’s on us, happily! And if you’d like to contribute a few extra dollars to support someone else’s participation, we’d be honored. Thank you!
