Christian Resilience Gatherings: Following Jesus in Turbulent Times

Turbulent times have been with humankind for eons. Many Christians across the centuries have weathered such times and grew in their faith. How did they do that? In following Jesus, what sustained their faith and allowed them to live with dignity and love?

If this interests you, join this monthly gathering on the second Monday of each month beginning Monday, August 11, 2025, 6:30pm to 8pm at Good Shepherd in room 114.

We will:

  • Gather in Christian community to share and reflect

  • Explore prayer and contemplative practices to deepen our faith

  • Learn tools for creating Christian community

Details:

Facilitated by Lorna Sheveland and other members of our congregation

Topics may include Lectio Divina, centering prayer, reading the stories of faith guides like:  Julian Norwich, Etty Hillesum, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and Corrie Ten Boom.
