Evening Prayer
a wonderful way to close the week.
October 3, 2008 - June 19, 2009
...Friday evenings at 5:30 in the Chapel of the Divine Compassion..
Our prayer will follow the format of the Taize, the French ecumenical community with world-wide appeal: simple chants, psalms, scripture reading and quiet, prayers of intention. It will be approximately 1/2 hour in length.
Meditation Series
For centuries enlightened cultures have sought out the benefits of meditation and have discovered its awesome ability to momentarily separate us from our material needs and desires and put us in contact with the Divine.
This is an excellent class for beginners or those who have difficulty meditating.
