This is an invitation to all who are interested in learning about and creating an intentional community. We will meet every Tuesday, from 9:00 to 3:30 at the Parish House, beginning October 10.

The format for the day is to begin with prayer, followed by a quiet time of working. We have places for people to set up to work on computers or do desk-type work. This will be in a room that is silent. If you work from home, this might be a nice weekly alternative for you. We also have places where you can meet with people or make phone calls. If you are retired, or do not have a formal job, you are still welcome to come. You can bring reading, writing, craft work or just plan to spend the time in contemplation.

At noon, we once again gather for prayer. There is then time to eat lunch and visit with each other, and perhaps engage in some type of stretching/walking/exercise, if you are willing and able! We then resume our work and gather at 3:00 for closing prayer. This model of work and prayer shows that the two are not mutually exclusive. Forming a community to engage together in our work and prayer is an ancient and effective way of being. As we meet together over time, we will find a rhythm that works for us, and we will begin to take some time to discern who we would like to be as a community.

You are welcome to come out on a trial basis and see if this is something that is a good fit for you. If you have any questions, please speak to Elizabeth.
