Wisdom Centre Event: “Contemplative Solidarity” with Therese DesCamp

“Contemplative Solidarity” introduces us to a powerful practice for times of instability and fear. This practice takes us on a deep dive into meditation, where, in addition to our sense of the Holy Presence, we learn to experience a felt awareness of our entanglements across time, space, and realities. Join us for a morning workshop where we will engage in a more stable and steadfast practice, a revised and reliable sense of hope, and the pervasive knowledge that we are not alone. For more information and to register, go to the Wisdom Centre link on our page.

All Souls' Day

We remember those who have gone before us with gratitude for their lives and their faithfulness. During the service, we will take time to commemorate the saints in our lives. You are invited to bring a picture or memento of those you wish to remember. We will also remember the longstanding and senior members of our parish who have passed on to glory over the past 12 months.

The Tears of Things: Prophetic Wisdom for an Age of Outrage

Join us for a soup supper and book study on Richard Rohr’s The Tears of Things. The ancient prophets have a reputation for anger and harshness - but that is not the whole story. This six-week study follows the evolution of the prophets’ relationship with God, as they move from anger at injustices, through grief and tears, to empathy, hope, and love. Along the way, we will consider what it might mean to be a modern-day prophet, how sorrow can become the soil for transformation, and what hope might look like in an “age of outrage.”
