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:Contemplative Prayer
DESCRIPTION:Contemplation has been described as a long-loving look at the real. Contemplation is about waking up\, listening\, noticing\, and paying attention. In the words of Adele Calhoun\, “A contemplative person recognizes that every experience offers more than meets the eye. They know that ‘bidden or unbidden’ God is present.” \nThis takes practice. \nJoin the Rev. BJ Woodworth for a time to practice a variety of contemplative prayer practices\, utilizing fixed prayers\, scripture\, music\, silence\, art\, and our bodies to help us start our day in communion with God and one another. \nClick the button below at the scheduled time to join via Zoom or call in by dialing 312.626.6799 and entering meeting ID\, 959 8065 3992. \n\nPasscode: bestill\n\nDial-in Passcode: 6787603\nJOIN VIA ZOOM

The service is led by ELPC’s senior pastor or other members of the pastoral staff. Special guest pastors or speakers periodically lead the service. \nChildren are invited to the chancel steps each Sunday to hear their own message before heading upstairs to Sacred Stories\, our Sunday school classes for children. Picture Bibles and activities are in the sanctuary for children who want to stay in worship. The nursery is available for children birth through age 3 to hear stories and play.

SUMMARY:Pray Always in All Ways
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered what prayer is or if you even believe in prayer? Have you ever longed to pray more but struggled to know how? Whether you feel like a novice or practiced expert\, we all need to practice prayer. There is no right or wrong way to pray\, nor is there no one starting point or a finish line. There is only the continual showing up to practice prayer and allowing our deepest longings for God\, others and the world to emerge. Together we will talk about our struggles and hopes with prayer and explore a wide variety of prayer forms\, including body prayer\, prayer beads\, icons\, silent\, written fixed-hour prayer and prayer as simple awareness in life. It will be playful\, inspiring and interactive with lots of time to practice together. \nPlease register using the form below. You only need to register ONCE for the series\, although this form is found in all 4 instances of this event\, it is just there for ease of access to people joining. \n\n\n“Prayer is easy only for beginners and for those who are already Saints. During all the long years in between\, it is difficult. Why? Because prayer has the same inner dynamics as love\, and love is sweet only in its initial stage\, when we first fall in love\, and again in its final\, mature stage. In between\, love is hard work\, dogged fidelity\, and needs willful commitment beyond what is normally provided by our emotions and our imagination. It’s when I say\, “I don’t know how to love\,” and “I don’t know how to pray\,” that I first begin to understand what love and prayer actually are.” – Ronald Rolheiser

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:Contemplative Prayer
DESCRIPTION:Contemplation has been described as a long-loving look at the real. Contemplation is about waking up\, listening\, noticing\, and paying attention.

They know that ‘bidden or unbidden’ God is present.” \nThis takes practice. \nJoin the Rev. BJ Woodworth for a time to practice a variety of contemplative prayer practices\, utilizing fixed prayers\, scripture\, music\, silence\, art\, and our bodies to help us start our day in communion with God and one another. \nClick the button below at the scheduled time to join via Zoom or call in by dialing 312.626.6799 and entering meeting ID\, 959 8065 3992. \n\nPasscode: bestill\n\nDial-in Passcode: 6787603\nJOIN VIA ZOOM
