SUMMARY:The Well - a time to gather in community online
DESCRIPTION:The Well is a time to gather in community online\, as you are able\, to share stories—the stories of scripture and the stories of participants own lives. Through time together—in prayer\, in listening\, in open-heartedness—participants are invited to get to know one another. Through prayerful listening to scripture (lectio divina) and authentic sharing\, participants will be drawn closer to each other\, to themselves\, and to God. \nJoin us for an hour in this wonderful space to nourish your Lenten journey. We will gather on Zoom at 7:45 p.m. EST beginning on Tuesday\, February 20 and continuing until March 26. Simply register here: https://the-well-2024.eventbrite.com. Although this program occurs weekly\, feel free to treat it as a “drop-in\,” attending as often as you are able. This offering is shared gratefully in collaboration with our friends at Lifelong Learning at Virginia Theological Seminary.

SUMMARY:Seasonal Quiet Days - Autumn
DESCRIPTION:An invitation to reflect\, to imagine\, and be inspired \nDuring this seasonal quiet day we will think of autumn as the “ebb tide” of the present year\, and of our lives in general. Ebb tide can be a time of waning and receding\, but also a time of change and opportunity. \nUsing scripture\, poetry\, music and silence\, we will listen for God’s voice. We will explore the gifts of nature through contemplative photography. Please bring a camera (or use your cell phone.) Finally\, we will reflect on the day’s blessings in conversation. \nPLEASE REGISTER at https://rhseason5.eventbrite.com. All are welcome! \nA light breakfast and lunch will be served. A suggested donation of $40 per person will be gratefully accepted and a portion of the proceeds is used for program scholarships. This amount is just a guideline — please don’t let finances keep you from attending!
