Sabbath

In the quiet of Sabbath rest we live into the Story by slowing down to reconnect with what matters…

Twice a month – the second and fourth Sundays – we set aside a Day of Rest.  By honoring time spent in being, rather than doing, we move into a way of facing the world and our lives with eyes open and spirits ready.  On these weekends we worship Saturday evenings at 5 pm and share a meal together as our way of beginning sacred time.  Then we each spend Sunday in ways that feed our souls, help us connect with God and others, and embraces the world with awareness and gratitude.  It is our way of remembering and observing who we are and whose we are, so that we may live more fully and wholly.

 

“Sabbath time can be a revolutionary challenge to the violence of overwork, mindless accumulation, and the endless multiplication of desires, responsibilities, and accomplishments.  Sabbath is a way of being in time where we remember who we are, remember what we know, and taste the gifts of spirit and eternity.”   Wayne Muller, Sabbath: Finding Rest, Renewal, & Delight in our Busy Lives
