Arts on Vine Gala Reception - Friday Night
|
|
|
Please join us in celebrating two very gifted artists of St. Barnabas! The
“2 Artists” Exhibit Gala Reception is on Friday, October 20th from 6:00 – 8:00 pm, with paintings by Joe Bednarek and sculpture by Tom Potter.
The exhibit will also be open on Saturday, Oct 21st from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm and Sunday from 9:00 am to noon.
While they differ greatly in their choice of media, the two artists share an impressionistic vision of their subjects that goes beneath and beyond the surface. Each work captures not just a moment of the subject in repose, but more than a hint of what has come before, and what might happen now.

This Sunday - Spiritual Tools for Survival
Meditation Sharing and Exchange. Patrick Wilson will present the meditations of Howard Thurman as the centerpiece of a discussion allowing participants to share and exchange meditations. Howard Thurman (1899-1981) was a mystic, prophet, poet, philosopher and theologian whose writings promote the idea that social responsibility emerges out of religious faith. He found the unity in all living things. Through his writings we will explore that harmony and center ourselves for a deeper spiritual journey. We envision that the Forum meditation and spiritual resource exchange will allow distribution of these resources in St. Barnabas print and electronic media.
Adult Forum meets in Grant Hall at St. Barnabas at 11:00 a.m. on Sunday.

We ask for your prayer for all those affected by disasters in California Texas, Louisiana, Florida, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Mexico, and beyond.
O Lord Our God, accept the fervent prayers of your people; in the multitude of your mercies, look with compassion upon us and all who turn to you for help; for you are gracious, O lover of souls, and to you we give glory, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, now and for ever. Amen. (BCP p395, Collect at the Prayers #5)

Dive Deep into Spirit - Wednesday Nights starting in January
|
|
A St. Barnabas Contemplative Compline (day’s end service in community) will launch based on input from Forum brainstorming and interest from several parishioners. Combining spiritual reflection, theological inquiry, personal sharing and ancient monastic ritual, we’ll seek a peace point in the rhythm of our weeks. After mindfully gathering ourselves we’ll discuss a text (initially Howard Thurman’s Jesus and the Disinherited) that spiritualizes a problem of our day, share relief in mutual prayer, and culminate with the short Compline liturgy. Like all STB programs it will be evolved through its practice by those participating.
Starts:
January 10, 2018 6:30–8:00 p.m.
,
at St. Barnabas, and continuing every Wednesday evening. Drop-ins welcome!
