Join us for a simple supper of soup and bread at 5pm, followed by our program at 6pm. You are welcome here!
Series Description:
Lent in the Episcopal tradition calls us to self-examination, repentance, prayer, and renewed attention to God’s presence in our daily lives. Over four evenings, we will explore ancient spiritual practices that have shaped Anglican prayer and devotion across centuries. Drawing on contemplative, monastic, and embodied traditions, these sessions offer both theological grounding and practical experience. Whether you are seeking new ways to pray or a deeper rhythm for an already-established practice, these evenings invite you into a more intentional and grace-filled Lenten journey.
Evening 4 (Sunday, March 22): “Walking the Way of Prayer”: The Labyrinth as Lenten Practice with Dana Hengst and Chris Stanek
The labyrinth offers a physical, prayerful journey that mirrors the inward path of Lent. Used for centuries in Christian devotion, labyrinth walking invites reflection, release, and receptivity to God’s guidance. This experiential evening will introduce the spiritual meaning of the labyrinth and offer participants the opportunity to walk it as a form of embodied prayer—especially meaningful for those who pray best with their whole selves, body, mind, and spirit.
