SUMMARY:Gospel of Thomas Circle
DESCRIPTION:The Gospel of Thomas\n\nWednesdays \nSeptember 16  –  December 9\n3:00 p.m. – 4:30 p.m.\nOn Zoom\n\nGather together as we explore and listen to the Gospel of Thomas.\nEach week we will prayerfully listen to one of Jesus’ sayings from this ancient source and take time to reflect upon what rises for each of us.\n  \n  \n  \n\nSuggested donation for this 12 week series: $95 \nAll of our offerings are supported solely by individual donations. This circle is partially sponsored\, allowing us to offer it at a reduced amount. Please share what you feel led to share\, whether less\, or more to support another. Thank you for being part of a community that doesn’t let finances get in the way.  \nWe are grateful for the generous support of a friend of The Retreat House for partially sponsoring this event. \nRegister here: \n\nhttps://tinyurl.com/THOMASfall26\n\n\n\n———————————————— \nPayment instructions: \nPlease do no let finances get in the way of gathering with us! We welcome you to pay as you will. Also\, if you would like to donate an additional amount to support others\, we are so grateful. \nWe prefer ONLINE payments: please visit this link just below\, make a one-time donation\, and write “Receive An Image” in the notes box. \nCUT AND PASTE INTO YOUR BROWSER: \nhttps://midshore.fcsuite.com/erp/donate/create/fund?funit_id=3409 \nIf CHECKS are your preferred payment\, please mark the memo line with ‘Receive and Image’ and mail them to: \nThe Retreat House \nP.O. Box \nChestertown\, MD   21620 \n  \n\n\nMore about the source:  The Gospel of Thomas was one of the manuscripts discovered in 1945 when the Nag Hamadi texts were discovered in Egypt. The Gospel of Thomas today is considered by many to be a rich resource for the deepening of a person’s relationship with God and Yeshua. Listening prayerfully to the sayings offers us an experience of Jesus as a wisdom teacher. The Gospel is different from the canonical Gospels of Matthew\, Mark\, Luke and John as Thomas does not offer any type of narrative about the life of Jesus. Instead it contains one hundred and fourteen sayings of Jesus or Yeshua.  Each saying stands alone and offers a great deal of wisdom into the sayings of Jesus and is an invitation to the student of Thomas to go deeper into what is being said.
