ADVENT CONTEMPLATIVE SIT
Wednesday, December 21
At 12:15 p.m. & 7:00 p.m., In the Transept Chapel
During Advent we have an opportunity to come together in contemplative prayer.
A simple 30-minute service using Scripture, silence, and poetry to help guide
us in our journey through the season. It is offered twice on Wednesday,
with the same theme at both services. Come join us for this helpful spiritual
discipline of stillness and contemplation.
