    After much prayer and discussion, the Friday worship team has decided to switch from Friday night  to an early Sunday evening time.  We hope that you help us pass the word to others!  Our new 6:30 worship time will begin in January 2009.
 
   In the interim, we'd encourage you to read through the blog to get an idea of some of the worship services we had this past summer/fall.  Our prayer is that the worship experience will be more than just a one night stand. We hope it will invoke new insights, questions, thoughts, reflections, ideas, etc., and open your heart and mind to God throughout the week.

    
    This is a place where you can throw out a couple of lines so others can nibble on them, but be prepared for some tugging.  Some may take the bait and respond with their own reflections!  Add your reflections and thoughts prayerfully.

    And remember, you are always welcome to share your thoughts, struggles, experiences, reflections, etc., during the next worship experience.

7/25/2008    Experiencing the Sacred through the Ordinary - Making the God Connection -  This week's theme focused on our need to connect with God - and God's desire to be connected with us.  Prayer is a major way for us to connect with God - even Jesus made sure that he spent time in prayer.  I Thessalonian 5:17 calls us to pray at all times - 24/7 !  The early Celtics focused prayer more on daily activities vs. a particular time during the day.  A woman would recite a prayer as she washed her face, started the fire, cooked the meals, etc.  Men would pray while they did their daily chores and work - constantly reminding themselves that God was with them throughout the day.   Part of our worship experience included reading prayers and articles written by others and to reflect on how we might attach prayers to our daily tasks in an effort to be more connected to God throughout the day.  There are some links below that may give you a taste of what we experienced this evening.
