SUMMARY:"Mary Strong" Rosary Prayer Group
DESCRIPTION:The “Mary Strong” rosary prayer group meets on the first Sunday of each month. We meet in the Church at 9:15 between our 8 and 10 am services. All are welcome! \nNever prayed the rosary before? No problem! This group will teach you everything you need to know. \nYes\, Episcopalians can and do pray the rosary! Just as we ask our friends to pray for us\, we can ask the saints—that great cloud of witnesses—to intercede on our behalf. Praying the rosary draws us close to the heart of St. Mary the God-bearer as we meditate on Jesus’ ministry\, crucifixion\, resurrection and ascension.

SUMMARY:Centering Prayer (Church)
DESCRIPTION:Centering prayer is a type of meditation with a long history in the Christian tradition\, beginning with the 14th century English monk who wrote The Cloud of Unknowing. But you don’t need to be a monk or a mystic to practice centering prayer and experience its benefits. Lent is the perfect time to enter the quiet of this practice. Beginners welcome. Sessions will last about 30 minutes. Tuesdays at 6 pm in the church (starting 2/20). \nLed by Tessa Kale\, who has taken many retreats on centering prayer with Cynthia Bourgeault and is a participant in her Wisdom School.

SUMMARY:Lenten Study: Meeting God in the Gospel of Mark (Wilks Room)
DESCRIPTION:Mother Meredith will offer a 3-session Lenten Book Study on the Gospel of Mark on Thursdays in Lent\, March 7th\, 14th\, and 21st at 7 pm. We’ll meet in the Wilks Room.

This short (just 75 pages!) but mighty study book is available for about $11 from any bookseller or massive online retailer. Please read the introduction and first chapter prior to the first session. \nDownload the Lenten Reading Plan for the Gospel of Mark\, from Meeting God in Mark. There is a reading for each day\, Monday to Saturday\, and a Sunday reflection. Starting on Ash Wednesday and reading a chapter or less each day\, you’ll finish the Gospel of Mark by Easter Sunday.

SUMMARY:Centering Prayer (Church)
DESCRIPTION:Centering prayer is a type of meditation with a long history in the Christian tradition\, beginning with the 14th century English monk who wrote The Cloud of Unknowing. But you don’t need to be a monk or a mystic to practice centering prayer and experience its benefits. Lent is the perfect time to enter the quiet of this practice. Beginners welcome. Sessions will last about 30 minutes. Tuesdays at 6 pm in the church (starting 2/20). \nLed by Tessa Kale\, who has taken many retreats on centering prayer with Cynthia Bourgeault and is a participant in her Wisdom School.

SUMMARY:Dinner and Taizé Service for Candlemas (Parish Hall and Church)
DESCRIPTION:On Friday\, February 2nd—the Feast of the Presentation\, aka Candlemas—please join us for a peaceful experience of Taizé prayer at 5:30 p.m. \nWe’ll start with a simple supper in the parish hall. Then the Rev. Masud Ibn Syedullah\, who has led many pilgrimages to the Taizé monastic community in France\, will teach us the Taizé way of prayer—simple\, chanted prayer-songs that anyone can sing. We’ll conclude our evening with a meditative prayer service in our candlelit church.  \nWhat is Taizé ? The ecumenical Taizé monastic community in France has engaged millions of pilgrims—mostly youth and young adults—with a message of peace and a meditative style of sung prayer. Come experience it for yourself! All ages welcome and everyone will be invited to participate (or not) in the singing to the extent they are comfortable.  \nWhat is Candlemas? Friday\, February 2nd is the Feast of the Presentation\, also known as Candlemas. This feast day comes forty days after Christmas and commemorates the presentation of baby Jesus and the purification of his mother Mary in the Jerusalem temple forty days after his birth. At his presentation\, the baby Jesus was greeted by Simeon (whose prayer upon encountering Jesus became the basis for the canticle nunc dimmittis (see page 120 in your Book of Common Prayer) and by the prophet Anna. Over time\, this celebration came to include the lighting and blessing of candles\, remembering Simeon’s prayer that Jesus is “a light to enlighten the nations.”
