All parishioners are warmly invited to join any session – we will be using the Psalter from the Book of Common Prayer, so just grab a Prayer Book from your shelf or a pew rack at STL or OWC and drop in: no homework required of anyone (except the volunteer session facilitator). The schedule has been revised. Please update your calendar:
Oct 2: Psalm 23 (Praying Our Fear) — Mary
Oct 9: no meeting
Oct 16: Psalm 137 (Praying Our Hate) — Jim
Oct 23: no meeting
Oct 30: Psalm 125 (A Song of Ascents) — Rev. Charlie, recently returned from an extended visit to Jerusalem and Galilee, will offer this psalm as a focal point for what he will share with us about the Temple Mount in Jerusalem and other highlights of his trip.)

Spirituality and Aging
Please join us and explore spirituality and aging with Dorothy Linthicum. All are welcome, whether you are journeying with a loved one or are an older adult yourself. We will explore what spirituality might be like for older adults and how spiritual practice in everyday life can enrich and deepen the aging process, including the process of death and dying. How can spiritual practices guide us and our loved ones to tap into the ultimate meaning in our lives?
Registration fee/suggested donation: $25. Please don’t let finances keep you from attending.
