Today\, the Taizé community is made up of over a hundred resident brothers\, both Catholics and from various Protestant backgrounds/traditions. Taizé wants to be a sign of reconciliation between divided Christians and between separated peoples.

SUMMARY:Children & Family Ministry Listening Sessions
DESCRIPTION:We are listening to God’s Spirit and to parents/grandparents this summer as we evaluate our Children & Family Ministry here at ELPC and make plans for the fall. We’ve heard that being part of community\, knowing God loves us all\, doing justice work\, having a space for questions about life and faith\, and sharing sacred stories are just some of the reasons families choose to be part of ELPC. We want to know what is important about church for YOUR family. We want to make sure the “when\, where\, and how” of our programing makes sense for today’s families. And we want to know how we can support YOU and your kids! \nWe hope families with children in grade 6 and under younger will join us for a conversation about our Children & Family Ministry over some Chipotle in the Nursery Suite this summer. Please let Sara Hackett know if you can join us! (There will be food for everyone and kids are welcome to hang out and play.) \nJoin us following worship on Sunday\, July 21\, 11 am–12:30 pm\, or on Monday\, July 29\, 6–7:30 pm. \nIf you would like to share your thoughts via our online survey instead of—or in addition to—meeting in person\, click the button below. \nComplete Our Survey

SUMMARY:Meditation Hour
DESCRIPTION:“The ladder leading to the Kingdom is concealed within you\, that is\, in your soul”—Saint Isaac of Syria. \nMeditation is the practice of “looking deeply.” In silence and withdrawal from the world of everyday concerns\, we turn our attention inward and calm our bodies and minds. In this emptiness\, we may see the world as if for the first time. We may see others as they are and we may find that the Kingdom of Heaven is truly within us; that we are living in God and God in us. \nThe Spiritual Life Committee invites you to join John Benedict in the Chapel on Tuesdays\, 6–7 pm\, for an hour devoted to meditation. The session will include an opening reading\, silent sitting\, and walking. No experience necessary\, all are welcome. \nJohn Benedict is a retired psychologist and a longtime student and practitioner of Insight Meditation.

SUMMARY:Environmental Book Study: Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
DESCRIPTION:The Environmental Team of the Justice Committee is reading Pilgrim at Tinker Creek by Annie Dillard. This is a classic book by a revered writer who grew up in Point Breeze. It won the 1975 Pulitzer Prize for nonfiction. \nTold from a first-person point of view\, the book details Dillard’s explorations near her home\, and various contemplations on nature and life. It is based on a year of living through the seasons at her Virginia home in the Blue Ridge valley near Roanoke. Annie Dillard sets out to see what she can see. What she sees are astonishing incidents of “mystery\, death\, beauty\, violence.” \nHere is a statement from Barbara Kingsolver: “I was in my 20s when I read Pilgrim at Tinker Creek. Her writing helped me see nature not as a collection of things to know or possess\, but a world of conjoined lives\, holy and complete\, with or without me. She left me with this sentence that has guided my life ever since: ‘Beauty and grace are performed whether or not we will or sense them. The least we can do is try to be there.'” \nConsider reading the book and joining our discussion in person on Thursday\, August 8\, 7 pm\, led by Sally Jo Snyder. \nFor more details\, email Nancy Heastings.
