TWO WEDNESDAYS, SEPTEMBER 16 & 23, 7–8:30 P.M., via Zoom
Wonder in Creation: A Two-Week Series of Spiritual Practices in Creation
How do you experience God in everyday life? How might your daily living itself be and become a spiritual practice? The Creation Care and Faith Formation ministries will jointly host a two-week series in September to explore how spiritual practices outside bring opportunities to encounter presence, connection and reflection. Each evening, a panel from Saint Mark's will reflect on their own experiences, and you will have time to share your own. We'll also introduce tangible ways to share in active spiritual practices and reflect on how they may nurture reflection and faith in our response.
Join us to "Celebrate the Harvest" on 9/16. The panelists for the first session will be:
- Rob Reid
- Carolyn Blount
- Keiko Maruyama & Jamie Rubio
-
Lisa Graumlich (host)
The second session, "Mindful Steps," on 9/23, will feature contributions from:
- Sarah Elwood
- Robert Stevens
- The Rev. Earl Grout, Deacon
- Brother Paul Dahlke
- Nancy & Andy Valaas
- Emily Meeks (host)
