Update - May 1

Hi all!

We had a really nice meeting last Wednesday with Mary Garbesi who is the Director of Caring Ministries and Spiritual Formation for the church. We began the evening talking more about "renewal" our theme for this month. Mary then talked about three words: being, doing and having and we discussed the order of those ideas and how culture makes it difficult to imagine it this way rather than having, doing and being. It was a very interesting discussion. Mary also shared some history and information about the Labyrinth and the practice of walking it.

This coming Sunday, May 6 is the next Labyrinth walk at church and you're all invited to walk it while it's open (10:30 - 12 noon {last entry at 11:15} or 2 - 4:30 pm {last entry at 3:45 pm}) and experience it for yourself. Mary is very interested in any feedback you'd be willing to share after your experience. It's different for everyone.

She also talked a little about Christian Meditation (a group practices this at our church every Wednesday evening).

Be sure to review the upcoming meetings and activities listed to the right and click on the calendar button if you'd like a more detailed view and description.

Please remember to email Ellen if you haven't already told her that you plan to attend the bridge retreat at Malibu Creek State Park on May 11 - 13!!!

This Wednesday night = Game Night!

Sunday = the Labyrinth Walk

See you all soon,

Rachel
