Are You Too Busy for God?

Are you too busy for God? Sounds sacrilegious, doesn’t it? But that’s how many of us feel. We’re running from doctors’ appointments to sports practice to games to work to shopping to….. We don’t mean to leave Him out of the schedule, but it happens. What can we do to fight it?

During this year’s Lenten Program, we will discuss video presentations by authors Susan and Gregory Jones, who will help us to examine our busy lives and learn to be present with ourselves, with each other, and with God. Topics will include:
  • Listening to the right voices;
  • Keeping time;
  • Self-awareness;
  • Listening alone, and listening together.
Our Lenten Program will begin on Friday, February 8 at 5:45 pm in the downstairs hall. The schedule for the program will be:
5:45 pm: Evening Prayer

6:00 pm: Simple Meal (soup and bread)

6:15 pm: Program- “Attentiveness: Being Present.”
Please join us as we enjoy some delicious soups and breads, watch some thought-provoking videos, and explore God’s presence among us.
