Prayer and Spiritual Growth
Following the 9:00 and 11:15 (10:15 summer) worship services on Sunday mornings, Winship Chapel is open for prayer. Stephen Ministers are present during this time to talk and pray with those who request it. Tuesday Morning Prayer Service Every Tuesday morning, at 9:30, a 15-minute prayer service is offered in Winship Chapel for the staff, congregation and community. This service is led by the staff of the church. (No prayer service is held during the summer May 28-August 21, 2007). Friends of Silence Dr. Trisha Senterfitt leads this group. She shares a short meditation and scripture, followed by thirty minutes of contemplative silence, and Holy Communion. This small group setting and the gift of silence rejuvenates our souls - a wonderful way to end one week and start another. Join us from 5:00 to 6:00 p.m., the first and third Sunday of each month, in the Pastoral Care Offices, Room B320. For more information, call Pat at 404-228-7719. Dream Group A Dream Group, led by Tallulah Lyons, meets on the first and third Sunday of each month at 2:30 until 4:30 p.m. The purpose of this small group is to share your dreams as a pathway to inner life and spiritual dialogue. If you would like further information on this group, call 404-228-7719. Spiritual Growth Retreats You are invited to join us for a most uplifting spiritual experience. Care Ministry sponsors a Fall retreat - a weekend at the Monastery of the Holy Spirit in Conyers - an awe-inspiring experience. And during Lent, Dr. Trisha Senterfitt, Associate Pastor, Pastoral Care Ministry, leads a day-long retreat. The location varies from year to year. Call Pat Kimbrell at 404-228-7719 for details.
Step out of the noise and rush of life and reconnect with God and yourself on the sacred path of your own church labyrinth. Following the winding path to the center of the design printed on canvas, your body moves into a peaceful rhythm of contemplation, a meditative path to quiet the soul, as you become more closely in tune with God. Call the Pastoral Care Office, 404-228-7719, for the labyrinth schedule.
As Christians we are shaped by the Bible. To assist in Bible reading, a system of daily lessons (a lectionary) has been created. Click here for a link to this resource.
