DESCRIPTION:Rowan Williams\, past Archbishop of Canterbury\, has said of Holy Week: It is “a week when we discover in a way we don’t at any other time just who we are and who God is.” \nThis four-week series\, led by Mother Meredith\, will explore the services of Holy Week and the Great Vigil of Easter\, preparing you to more fully take part in this rich experience that expresses the heart of our life and faith.

Each evening will conclude with Compline (the Church’s night prayer) at 8 pm. \nMarch 13: Exploring Palm/Passion Sunday \nMarch 20: Exploring Maundy Thursday \nMarch 27: Exploring Good Friday & Holy Saturday \nApril 3: Exploring The Great Vigil of Easter \n  \n  \n

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 in Lent at 6 pm in the church (starting March 18th). \nLed by Tessa Kale\, who has taken many retreats on centering prayer with Cynthia Bourgeault and is a participant in her Wisdom School.
